6. These connectors are for the Serial ATA signal cables for Serial ATA 3Gb/s hard disk and optical disk drives. The Serial ATA 3Gb/s is backward compatible with Serial ATA 1.5Gb/s specification. The data transfer rate of the Serial ATA 3Gb/s is faster than the standard parallel ATA with 133 MB/s (Ultra DMA133). If you install Serial ATA hard disk drives, you can create a RAID 0, RAID 1, and RAID 0+1 configurations through the onboard SB710 chipset. Serial ATA connectors (7-pin SATA1, SATA2, SATA3, SATA5 and SATA6) Install the Windows® XP Service Pack 1 before using Serial ATA. • For detailed instructions on RAID configurations, refer to the RAID manual in the Support DVD. • If you intend to create a Serial ATA RAID set using these connectors, set the OnChip SATA Type item in the BIOS to [RAID]. See 2.3.4 SATA Configuration for details. 7. This connector is for an IEEE 1394a port. Connect the IEEE 1394a module cable to this connector, then install the module to a slot opening at the back of the system chassis. IEEE 1394a port connector (10-1 pin IE1394_1) Never connect a USB cable to the IEEE 1394a connector. Doing so will damage the motherboard! ASUS M4A78-EM/1394 1-25
