GND

TXP TXN GND RXN RXP GND

Connect one end of the Serial ATA cable to J11 (SATA 3), J10
(SATA 4), J21 (SATA 1) or J20 (SATA 2) and the other end to your
Serial ATA device.

BIOS Setting

Enable or disable the onboard SATA in the Genie BIOS Setting
submenu of the BIOS. Refer to chapter 3 for more information.

Configuring RAID on Serial ATA Drives

The system board allows configuring RAID across Serial ATA drives
and Parallel ATA drives. It supports RAID 0, RAID 1, 0+1 and
JBOD. The following must be set accordingly.

1. Set the “IDE RAID” field to “Enabled”. (Integrated Peripherals

submenu - “IDE Function Setup” section of the Award BIOS.)

2. Configure the “Ext Phy SATA 1 RAID” to “Ext Phy SATA 4

RAID” fields appropriately. (Integrated Peripherals submenu - “IDE
Function Setup” section of the Award BIOS.)

3. Run the NVIDIA RAID BIOS utility by pressing the <F10> key

after the system powers-up. The utility is used to configure and
manage RAID on both Serial ATA and Parallel ATA drives.
