3. Serial ATA connectors (7-pin SATA1, SATA2, SATA3, SATA4, SATA5, SATA6) Supported by the NVIDIA® MCP55 Professional chipset, these connectors are for the Serial ATA signal cables for Serial ATA hard disk drives that allows up to 3Gb/s of data transfer rate. If you installed Serial ATA hard disk drives, you can create a RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10, RAID 5, or JBOD configuration. Refer to Chapter 5 for details on how to set up the RAID configurations. These connectors are set to SATA by default. In SATA mode, you can connect Serial ATA boot or data hard disk drives to these connectors. If you intent to create a Serial ATA RAID set using these connectors, enable the RAID function of each port from the nVidia RAID Setup sub‑menu item in the BIOS. See section '4.3.5 IDE Configuration" on page 4-16 for details.
