remember to set the jumpers and the cabling according to the role of the IDE devices (for example,

master or slave). (For information about conﬁguring master/slave settings for the IDE devices, read the

instructions from the device manufacturers.)

SATA2_0/1/2/3/4/5 (SATA 3Gb/s Connectors, Controlled by AMD SB750)

The SATA connectors conform to SATA 3Gb/s standard and are compatible with SATA 1.5Gb/s standard.

Each SATA connector supports a single SATA device. The AMD SB750 controller supports RAID 0, RAID 1,

RAID 5, RAID 10, and JBOD. Refer to Chapter 5, "Conﬁguring SATA Hard Drive(s)," for instructions on
