7) SATA2 2/3/4/5 (SATA 3Gb/s Connectors, Controlled by Intel Z77/H77 Chipset)
The SATA connectors conform to SATA 3Gb/s standard and are compatible with SATA 1.5Gb/s standard.
Each SATA connector supports a single SATA device. The Intel Z77/H77 Chipset supports RAID 0, RAID 1,
RAID5,andRAID10.RefertoChapter5,"ConguringSATAHardDrive(s),"forinstructionsonconguring
a RAID array.
• ARAID0orRAID1congurationrequiresatleasttwoharddrives.Ifmorethantwoharddrives
are to be used, the total number of hard drives must be an even number.
• ARAID5congurationrequiresatleastthreeharddrives.(Thetotalnumberofharddrivesdoes
not have to be an even number.)
• ARAID10congurationrequiresfourharddrives.
6) SATA3 0/1 (SATA 6Gb/s Connectors, Controlled by Intel Z77/H77 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 0/1 connectors support
RAID 0 and RAID 1. RAID 5 and RAID 10 can be implemented on the two connectors with the SATA2
2/3/4/5 connector
(Note)
.RefertoChapter5,"ConguringSATAHardDrive(s),"forinstructionsonconguring
a RAID array.
(Note) When a RAID set is built across the SATA 6Gb/s and SATA 3Gb/s channels, the system performance
of the RAID set may vary depending on the devices being connected.
