3. Serial ATA connectors (7-pin SATA1, SATA2, SATA3, SATA4) These connectors are for the Serial ATA signal cables for Serial ATA hard disk drives. If you installed Serial ATA hard disk drives, you can create a RAID 0 and RAID 1 configuration using the Intel® Matrix Storage Technology or the LSI MegaRAID® utility embedded in the Intel® ICH7R Southbridge. These connectors are set IDE mode by default. In IDE mode, you can connect Serial ATA boot/data hard disk drives to these connectors. If you intend to create a Serial ATA RAID set using these connectors, set the Configure SATA as item in the BIOS to [RAID]. See section "4.3.4 IDE Configuration" for details.
