Alternate (ALT)
Power Input
Connector
Provides required additional power when using high power (75 W or greater) add-in
cards in both the PCI Express x16 and the Secondary PCI Express x16/x4 bus add-in
card connectors
ATAPI CD-ROM
connector
A 1 x 4-pin ATAPI-style connector for connecting an internal ATAPI CD-ROM drive to
the audio mixer
Audio Subsystem
Intel High Definition Audio subsystem in one of the following configurations:
• 8-channel (7.1) audio subsystem with five analog audio outputs and two S/PDIF
digital audio outputs (coaxial and optical) using the Sigmatel 9221 audio codec
• 6-channel (5.1) audio subsystem with three analog audio outputs using the
Sigmatel 9220 audio codec
Auxiliary (AUX)
Power Output
Connector
Provides power for internal chassis lighting
Discrete SATA
RAID controller
• Silicon Image Sil 3114 SATA RAID controller
• Four SATA connectors (in addition to the four SATA connectors on the ICH7-R
SATA interface)
IEEE-1394a/b
Interface
IEEE-1394a/b controller and three IEEE-1394a/b connectors: one back panel
connector, two front-panel connectors. Back panel connector is IEEE-1394a-
compatible only; front panel connectors are 1394a- or 1394b-compatible, configurable
through the BIOS Setup program.
Processor power
connector
One of the following connectors for providing +12 V power to the processor voltage
regulator:
• 2 x 4-pin (requires a power supply with a dual-rail 2 x 4 power cable)
• 2 x 2-pin
SCSI Hard Drive
Activity LED
Connector
Allows add-in hard drive controllers (SCSI or other) to use the same LED as the
onboard IDE controller.
Trusted Platform
Module (TPM)
A component that enhances platform security
