Serial ATA technology The motherboard supports the Serial ATA technology through the Serial ATA interfaces and the Intel® ICH7R. The SATA specification allows for thinner, more flexible cables with lower pin count, reduced voltage requirement, and up to 300 MB/s data transfer rate. See pages 2-25 to 2‑26 for details. Onboard RAID solution The Intel® ICH7R allows RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5, and RAID 10 configuration for four SATA connectors and supports the Intel® Matrix Storage Technology. See pages 2‑26, 2-27, and 5‑18 for details. PCI Express™ interface The motherboard fully supports PCI Express, the latest I/O interconnect technology that speeds up the PCI bus. PCI Express features point‑to‑point serial interconnections between devices and allows higher clockspeeds by carrying data in packets. This high speed interface is software compatible with existing PCI specifications. See page 2-20 for details. 8-channel high definition audio Onboard is the Realtek® ALC882 High Definition Audio 8-channel audio CODEC. This CODEC is fully-compliant with Intel® High Definition Audio standard (192 KHz, 24-bit audio). With the CODEC, 8-channel audio ports, and S/PDIF interfaces, you can connect your computer to home theater decoders to produce crystal‑clear digital audio. The Realtek® ALC882 CODEC comes with a software application that features jack detection to monitor the plugging status of each jack, impedance sensing to determine audio device classes, and pre-defined equalization for various audio devices. See pages 2-22, 2-23, and 5-12 for details. S/PDIF digital sound ready The motherboard supports the S/PDIF technology through the coaxial and optical S/PDIF Out ports on the rear panel. The S/PDIF technology turns your computer into a high-end entertainment system with digital connectivity to powerful audio and speaker systems. See pages 2-23 for details. ASUS P5LD2 1-
