Ultra320 SCSI feature

Ultra320 SCSI feature (P5MT/SCSI model only)

(P5MT/SCSI model only)

The LSI53C1020A PCI-X SCSI controller is onboard to support one 68-pin
Ultra320 SCSI connector, that can connect up to 15 SCSI devices. See
page 2-27 and Chapter 5 for details.

Zero-Channel RAID (ZCR) card solution

The motherboard comes with a PCI-X slot (green slot in P5MT/SCSI model)
that supports an optional Zero-Channel RAID card. The Zero-Channel RAID
card allows you to create all types of RAID configurations for your storage
devices. The ZCR capability provides a cost-effective, high-performance,
and added reliability for your server system.

Gigabit LAN solution

The motherboard comes with dual Gigabit LAN controllers and ports to
provide a total solution for your networking needs. The onboard Broadcom

BCM5721 Gigabit LAN controllers use the PCI Express interface and could
achieve network throughput close to Gigabit bandwidth. See page 2-23 for
details.

Serial ATA II technology

The motherboard supports the Serial ATA II technology through the Serial
ATA interfaces controlled by the Intel

ICH7R. The SATA specification allows

for thinner, more flexible cables with lower pin count, reduced voltage
requirement, and up to 300 MB/s data transfer rate.

Built-in SATA RAID solution

The Intel

ICH7R allows RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 0+1, and software RAID 5

configuration for SATA hard disk drives via the Intel

Matrix Storage

Manager or the LSI Logic Embedded SATA RAID Setup Utility (no RAID 5).
See page 2-25 and Chapter 5 for details.

USB 2.0 technology

The motherboard implements the Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0
specification, dramatically increasing the connection speed from the
12 Mbps bandwidth on USB 1.1 to a fast 480 Mbps on USB 2.0. USB 2.0 is
backward compatible with USB 1.1. See pages 2-23 and 2-26 for details.
