2 . 1 1 Serial ATA (SATA) / Serial ATAII (SATAII) Hard Disks Installation This motherboard adopts NVIDIA® nForce 780a SLI chipset that supports Serial ATA (SATA) / Serial ATAII (SATAII) hard disks and RAID functions. You may install SATA / SATAII hard disks on this motherboard for internal storage devices. This section will guide you to install the SATA / SATAII hard disks. STEP 1: Install the SATA / SATAII hard disks into the drive bays of your chassis. STEP 2: Connect the SATA power cable to the SATA / SATAII hard disk. STEP 3: Connect one end of the SATA data cable to the motherboard's SATAII connector. STEP 4: Connect the other end of the SATA data cable to the SATA / SATAII hard disk. 1. If you plan to use RAID 0, RAID 1 or JBOD function, you need to install at least 2 SATA / SATAII hard disks. If you plan to use RAID 5 function, you need to install 3 SATA / SATAII hard disks. If you plan to use RAID 0+1 function, you need to install 4 SATA / SATAII hard disks. 2. It is recommended to build RAID on internal SATAII ports. In other words, if SATAII_6 (PORT5) is used for eSATAII port, please build RAID on other SATAII ports. 3. Under non-RAID mode, SATAII_5 (PORT4) and SATAII_6 (PORT5) cannot function. 2.12 Driver Installation Guide To install the drivers to your system, please insert the support CD to your optical drive first. Then, the drivers compatible to your system can be auto-detected and listed on the support CD driver page. Please follow the order from up to bottom side to install those required drivers. Therefore, the drivers you install can work properly. 2.13 Installing Windows® XP / XP 64-bit / VistaTM / VistaTM 64-bit Without RAID Functions If you want to install Windows® XP, Windows® XP 64-bit, Windows® VistaTM or Windows® VistaTM 64-bit on your SATA / SATAII HDDs without RAID functions, please follow below procedures according to the OS you install. 2.13.1 Installing Windows® XP / XP 64-bit Without RAID Functions If you want to install Windows® XP / Windows® XP 64-bit on your SATA / SATAII HDDs without RAID functions, please follow below steps. 32 ASRock K10N780SLIX3-WiFi Motherboard English
