ICH7R Serial ATA connectors (7-pin SATA1 [red], SATA2 [red], SATA3 [black], SATA4 [black]) These connectors are for Serial ATA signal cables for Serial ATA hard disk drives. If you installed Serial ATA hard disk drives, you can create a RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10, and RAID 5 configuration with the Intel® Matrix Storage Technology through the onboard Intel® ICH7R RAID controller. • These connectors are set to S t a n d a r d I D E mode by default. In S t a n d a r d I D E mode, you can connect Serial ATA boot/data hard disk drives to these connectors.

See section "4.3.6 IDE Configuration" for details. • For RAID 5, use at least three hard disk drives. For RAID 10, use at least four hard disk drives. Use two to four Serial ATA hard disk drives for each RAID 0 or RAID 1 set. ® P5W64 WS PRO GND SATA_TXP2 SATA_TXN2 GND SATA_RXN2 SATA_RXP2 GND GND SATA_TXP3 SATA_TXN3 GND SATA_RXN3 SATA_RXP3 GND GND SATA_RXP0 SATA_RXN0 GND SATA_TXN0 SATA_TXP0 GND SATA4 P5W64 WS PRO SATA connectors SATA2 GND SATA_RXP1 SATA_RXN1 GND SATA_TXN1 SATA_TXP1 GND SATA3 SATA1 2-32 Chapter 2: Hardware information
