Asus DSEB-D16 - Manual (Page 17)

ASUS DSEB-D16 Series 1-3
FB-DIMM memory support
This motherboard supports fully buffered DIMMs (FB-DIMMs), the latest memory
solution that extends memory capacity and provide high-speed, high-density
system memory peformance. FB-DIMMs use Advanced Memory Buffer (AMB)
chips that transmit signals between the memory modules and controllers with
improved signal integrity and reduced errors.
PCIe 2.0
This motherboard supports the latest PCIe 2.0 device for twice the current speed
and bandwidth. This enhances system performance while still providing backward
compatibility to PCIe 1.0 devices.
Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) technology support
(DSEB-D16/SAS model only)
SAS is the latest storage interface for enterprise-class storage devices. Building
on and improving the parallel SCSI foundation, SAS is the new industry standard
that includes Serial ATA interoperability, and is projected to be the succesor of the
Ultra320 SCSI technology.
Zero-Channel RAID (ZCR) solution
(DSEB-D16/SAS model only)
The motherboard comes with a ZCR socket for an optional Zero-Channel RAID
card, allowing RAID 0 (striping), RAID 1 (mirroring), RAID 10, and RAID 5
configurations. The ZCR capability provides a cost-effective high-performance and
added reliability.
82563/82573 LAN solution
The motherboard comes with a dual-port 82563EB network connection and
two single-port 82573 L network connection to provide a total solution for your
networking needs. See page 2-33 for the location of the LAN ports. See section 2.6
Jumpers for details on Gigabit LAN settings.
Serial ATA II technology
The motherboard supports the Serial ATA II 3 Gb/s technology through 6321ESB
Serial ATA interfaces. The Serial ATA II specification provides twice the bandwidth
of the current Serial ATA products with a host of new features, including Native
Command Queuing (NCQ), Power Management (PM) Implementation Algorithm,
and Hot Swap. Serial ATA allows thinner, more flexible cables with lower pin count
and reduced voltage requirements.
