2.14 Serial ATA (SATA) / Serial ATAII (SATAII) Hard Disks Installation This motherboard adopts Intel® P55 chipset that supports Serial ATA (SATA) / Serial ATAII (SATAII) hard disks and RAID (RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10, RAID 5, and Intel Rapid Storage) functions. You may install SATA / SATAII hard disks on this motherboard for internal storage devices. This section will guide you to install the SATA / SATAII hard disks. STEP 1: Install the SATA / SATAII hard disks into the drive bays of your chassis. STEP 2: Connect the SATA power cable to the SATA / SATAII hard disk. STEP 3: Connect one end of the SATA data cable to the motherboard's SATAII connector. STEP 4: Connect the other end of the SATA data cable to the SATA / SATAII hard disk. It is not recommended to switch the "SATAII Operation Mode" setting between AHCI, RAID and IDE mode after OS installation. 2.15 Serial ATA3 (SATA3) Hard Disks Installation This motherboard adopts Marvell SE9128 chipset that supports Serial ATA3 (SATA3) hard disks and RAID (RAID 0 and RAID 1) functions for SATA3_1 and SATA3_2 connectors. It also adopts Marvell SE9123/9120 chipset that supports Serial ATA3 (SATA3) hard disks for SATA3_3 and SATA3_4 connectors. You may install SATA3 hard disks on this motherboard for internal storage devices. This section will guide you to install the SATA3 hard disks. STEP 1: Install the SATA3 hard disks into the drive bays of your chassis. STEP 2: Connect the SATA power cable to the SATA3 hard disk. STEP 3: Connect one end of the SATA data cable to the motherboard's SATA3 connector. STEP 4: Connect the other end of the SATA data cable to the SATA3 hard disk. It is not recommended to switch the "SATA3_1, 2 Operation Mode" and "SATA3_3, 4 Operation Mode" settings between AHCI and IDE mode after OS installation. 39
