SATA Disk Drive Connectors
Four Serial ATA (SATA) disk drive con-
nectors (I-SATA 0~3) are located on the
motherboard to provide serial link con-
nections. Serial Link connections provide
faster data transmission than those of the
traditional Parallel ATA. These four SATA
connectors are supported by the Intel
ICH7 Chip (South Bridge). See the table
on the right for pin denitions.
