Chapter 4: Motherboard Connections
SATA Ports
The X11SCL-LN4F has six SATA 3.0 ports (I-SATA0 – I-SATA5) supported by the Intel C242
chipset. These SATA ports support RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10.
Note
: Supermicro SuperDOMs are yellow SATADOM connectors with power pins built in and
do not require separate external power cables. These connectors are backwards compatible
with non-Supermicro SATADOMS that require an external power supply.
M.2 Slot
The X11SCL-LN4F motherboard has one M.2 slot supporting PCI-E 3.0 x4. This offers solid
state storage in a small form factor. The motherboard supports cards in a 2280 or 22110
form factor.
