2.15 Serial ATA (SATA) / Serial ATA2 (SATA2) Hard Disks Installation This motherboard adopts Intel® Z77 chipset that supports Serial ATA (SATA) / Serial ATA2 (SATA2) hard disks and RAID (RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 10, Intel Rapid Storage and Intel Smart Response Technology) functions. You may install SATA / SATA2 hard disks on this motherboard for internal storage devices. This section will guide you to install the SATA / SATA2 hard disks. STEP 1: Install the SATA / SATA2 hard disks into the drive bays of your chassis. STEP 2: Connect the SATA power cable to the SATA / SATA2 hard disk. STEP 3: Connect one end of the SATA data cable to the motherboard's SATA2 con- nector. STEP 4: Connect the other end of the SATA data cable to the SATA / SATA2 hard disk. 2.16 Serial ATA3 (SATA3) Hard Disks Installation This motherboard adopts Intel® Z77 chipset that supports Serial ATA3 (SATA3) hard disks and RAID (RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 10, Intel Rapid Storage and Intel Smart Response Technology) functions for SATA3_0 and SATA3_1 connectors. ASMedia ASM1061 chipset supports Serial ATA3 (SATA3) hard disks for SATA3_A0 and SATA3_A1 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 con- nector. STEP 4: Connect the other end of the SATA data cable to the SATA3 hard disk. Please be noted that SATA3_A0 and SATA3_A1 do not support RAID function. If you want to use RAID function on SATA3 connectors, please use SATA3_0 and SATA3_1 connectors. 46

Serial ATA (SATA) / Serial ATA2 (SATA2) Hard Disks Installation
This motherboard adopts Intel
®
Z77 chipset that supports Serial ATA (SATA) / Serial
ATA2 (SATA2) hard disks and RAID (RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 10, Intel Rapid
Storage and Intel Smart Response Technology) functions. You may install SATA /
SATA2 hard disks on this motherboard for internal storage devices. This section will
guide you to install the SATA / SATA2 hard disks.
STEP 1:
Install the SATA / SATA2 hard disks into the drive bays of your chassis.
STEP 2:
Connect the SATA power cable to the SATA / SATA2 hard disk.
STEP 3:
Connect one end of the SATA data cable to the motherboard’s SATA2 con-
nector.
STEP 4: Connect the other end of the SATA data cable to the SATA / SATA2 hard
disk.
2.16
Serial ATA3 (SATA3) Hard Disks Installation
This motherboard adopts Intel
®
Z77 chipset that supports Serial ATA3 (SATA3) hard
disks and RAID (RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, RAID 10, Intel Rapid Storage and Intel
Smart Response Technology) functions for SATA3_0 and SATA3_1 connectors.
ASMedia ASM1061 chipset supports Serial ATA3 (SATA3) hard disks for SATA3_A0
and SATA3_A1 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 con-
nector.
STEP 4: Connect the other end of the SATA data cable to the SATA3 hard disk.
Please be noted that SATA3_A0 and SATA3_A1 do not support RAID func-
tion. If you want to use RAID function on SATA3 connectors, please use
SATA3_0 and SATA3_1 connectors.
