Intel® Server Board SE7505VB2 PCI I/O Subsystem 5.1.2.2 P64-B Arbitration P64-B supports three PCI masters: two PCI-X slots and the P64H2. All PCI masters must arbitrate for PCI access using resources supplied by the P64H2. The host bridge PCI interface (P64H2) arbitration lines REQx* and GNTx* are a special case in that they are internal to the host bridge. The following table defines the arbitration connections.

The Silicon Image 3112A provides a single 32-bit / 33-MHz PCI bus master interface as a multifunction device, packaged in a 128-pin PQFP. It supports two modes: base mode and RAID mode. The Silicon Image 3112A controller supports the following features: Automatically selects highest available transfer speed for all devices Supports: - UDMA up to 150MB/second - All UDMA and PIO modes - Up to two SATA devices - ACPI and ATA/ATAPI6 RAID 0 and 11 On-line mirror rebuilding RAID set accommodates multiple size HDDs HDDs function normally when not in RAID sets Adjustable stripe size for RAID 0 1 RAID functionality available under most operating systems.
