SATA Ports
This motherboard has six SATA 3.0 ports. I-SATA0 and I-SATA1 have built-in power
pins to support Supermicro's SATA DOM (Disk On Module) solutions.
M.2 Socket
M.2 is formerly known as Next Generation Form Factor (NGFF). The connector
(JMD1) is designed for internal mounting devices. The motherboard deploys an M
key dedicated for SSD devices with the ultimate performance capability in a PCI
Express 3.0 x4 interface for native PCIe SSD support. The M.2 is mux with the
I-SATA4 port for legacy SATA SSD devices.
Mini PCI-E Slot
The JMP1 connector is a mini PCI-E 2.0 X1 slot that is mux with I-SATA5.
