Hardware Monitoring

Hardware monitoring enables you to monitor various aspects of the system
operation and status.  This includes CPU temperature, voltage and fan speed in
RPMs.

2

GbE LAN

This mainboard is optionally mounted with a Gigabit ethernet LAN chipset. The
new Gigabit Ethernet LAN allows data transmission at 1,000 megabits per second
(Mbps), which runs 10 times faster than conventional 10/100BASE-T Ethernet
LANs.

2

Serial ATA

Support Serial ATA, an evolutionary replacement for Parallel ATA IDE storage
interface .Increases the peak data transfer speed up to 150MB/sec and allows
future enhancements to the computing platform.

2

More S-ATA (Optional)

Extra Silicon Image SiI3114 S-ATA controller onboard for more S-ATA ports,
complete with RAID function, 4 S-ATA ports with 150MB/sec supporting RAID
0, 1 , 10, 5.

2

USB2.0

A popular USB standard for plugging in peripherals with up to 480Mbps transfer
speed while maintaining backward compatibility with older USB1.1 device.
