12 Serial-ATA Interface (S-ATA)

The JRexplus-DC has two S-ATA ports. Serial-ATA connections boost the data rate theoretically up to 300
MB/sec. In addition it changes the parallel interface requiring 40 separate wires to a serial interface requi-
ring only 6 wires. A RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) configuration is

not possible.

12.1 Connector

The S-ATA interface is available through the standard L-type connectors J14 and J15 (7 pins).
