4. ICH10R Serial ATA connectors (7-pin SATA 1-6)
These connectors are for the Serial ATA signal cables for Serial ATA hard disk drives
and optical disc drives.
If you installed Serial ATA hard disk drives, you can create a RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10
conguration with the Intel
®
Matrix Storage Technology through the onboard Intel
®
ICH10R RAID controller.
• These connectors are set to Standard IDE mode by default. In Standard IDE mode,
you can connect Serial ATA boot/data hard disk drives to these connectors. If you
intend to create a Serial ATA RAID set using these connectors, set the Congure
SATA as item in the BIOS to [RAID]. See section 3.4.2 Storage Conguration for
details.
• Before creating a RAID set, refer to section 4.4 RAID congurations or the manual
bundled in the motherboard support DVD.
• You must install Windows
®
XP Service Pack 1 or later version before using Serial ATA
hard disk drives. The Serial ATA RAID feature (RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10) is available only if
you are using Windows
®
XP SP1 or later version.
• When using hot-plug and NCQ, set the Congure SATA as in the BIOS to [AHCI].
