P45XE-WiFiN / P45XE-R adopts Intel
®
ICH10R south bridge chipset that supports
Serial ATA (SATA) / Serial ATAII (SATAII) hard disks and RAID (RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID
10, RAID 5, and Intel Matrix Storage) functions. P45XE adopts Intel
®
ICH10 south
bridge chipset that supports Serial ATA (SATA) / Serial ATAII (SATAII) hard disks. You
may install SATA / SATAII hard disks on this motherboard for internal storage devices.
This section will guide you to install the SATA / SATAII hard disks.
STEP 1: Install the SATA / SATAII hard disks into the drive bays of your chassis.
STEP 2: Connect the SATA power cable to the SATA / SATAII hard disk.
STEP 3: Connect one end of the SATA data cable to the motherboard’s SATAII
connector.
STEP 4: Connect the other end of the SATA data cable to the SATA / SATAII hard
disk.
1. If you plan to use RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10 or Intel Matrix Storage
function, you need to install at least 2 SATA / SATAII hard disks. If you
plan to use RAID 5 function, you need to install at least 3 SATA / SATAII
hard disks.
2. It is not recommended to switch the “Configure SATAII as” setting after
OS installation.
