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 1-3
