Chapter 2: Hardware information

4. Silicon Image Serial ATA RAID connectors

(7-pin 3132_SATA1, 3132_SATA2)
Supported by the Silicon Image Sil3132 RAID controller, these

connectors are for Serial ATA II signal cables. These connectors

support up to two Serial ATA II hard disk drives that can be configured

as a disk array through the onboard Sil3132 SATA RAID controller.

Refer to Chapter 5 for details on how to set up Serial ATA RAID

configurations.

By default, the RAID function of these connectors are disabled. Set the

Onboard Sil3132 SATALink item to RAID Mode in the BIOS, if you are

configuring a set with these connectors. See section “4.4.5 Onboard

Devices Configuration” on page 4-26 for details.

The actual data transfer rate depends on the speed of Serial ATA hard

disks installed.
