These connectors are for the Serial ATA signal cables for Serial ATA
hard disk drives.
If you installed Serial ATA hard disk drives, you can create a RAID 0,
RAID 1, RAID 0+1, and software RAID 5 configuration using the Intel

connect Serial ATA boot/data hard disk drives to these connectors. If
you intend to create a Serial ATA RAID set using these connectors, set

• You must install Windows ® 2000 Service Pack 4 or Windows ® 2003
before using Serial ATA hard disk drives. The Serial ATA RAID
feature (RAID 0/RAID 1) is available only if you are using Windows
®
2000/2003.
• Use only two Serial ATA RAID connectors for each RAID 0 or RAID 1
set.
• When using the connectors in I D E I D E I D E I D E I D E mode, connect the primary (boot)
hard disk drive to the SATA1 or SATA2 connector. Refer to the table
below for the recommended SATA hard disk drive connections.
