M.2 Sockets
M.2 sockets are designed for devices such as memory cards, wireless adapters, etc. These
devices must conform to the PCI-E M.2 specications (formerly known as NGFF).
Note: PCIE M.2-M1 and PCIE M.2-M2 support RAID 0 and RAID 1.
SATA Ports
Four Serial ATA (SATA) 3.0 connectors (I-SATA 0~3) are supported on the motherboard. These
I-SATA 3.0 ports are supported by the Intel W480 PCH chip (supports RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10).
SATA ports provide serial-link signal connections, which are faster than the connections of
Parallel ATA. Refer to the table below for pin denitions.
Note: For more information on the SATA HostRAID conguration, please refer to the
Intel SATA HostRAID user's guide posted on our website at https://www.supermicro.
