7) SATA3_0/1 (SATA 6Gb/s Connectors, Controlled by P67 Chipset)
The SATA connectors conform to SATA 6Gb/s standard and are compatible with SATA 3Gb/s and SATA
1.5Gb/s standard. Each SATA connector supports a single SATA device. The SATA3_0 and SATA3_1
connectors support RAID 0, and RAID 1. RAID 5 and RAID 10 can be implemented on the two connec-
tors with the SATA2_2/3/4/5 connector
