Intel® Serial ATA 6 Gb/s connectors (7-pin SATA6G_12, SATA 6G_34, SATA 6G_56/SATAEXPRESS, SATA6G_78, SATA6G_910) These connectors connect to Serial ATA 6 Gb/s hard disk drives via Serial ATA 6 Gb/s signal cables. If you installed Serial ATA hard disk drives, you can create a RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10 configuration with the Intel® Rapid Storage Technology through the onboard Intel® X99 chipset. • These connectors are set to [AHCI Mode] by default. If you intend to create a Serial ATA RAID set using these connectors, set the SATA Mode item in the BIOS to [RAID Mode]. Refer to section 3.6.3 PCH Storage Configuration for details. • Before creating a RAID set, refer to the manual bundled in the motherboard support DVD. • The SATAEXPRESS connector can support one SATA Express device or two SATA devices. • Due to chipset behavior, the SATA6G_78 and SATA6G_910 ports do not support Intel® Rapid Storage Technology and RAID configuration. 1-14 Chapter 1: Product Introduction

These connectors connect to Serial ATA 6 Gb/s hard disk drives via Serial ATA 6 Gb/s
signal cables.
If you installed Serial ATA hard disk drives, you can create a RAID 0, 1, 5, and 10
configuration with the Intel
®
Rapid Storage Technology through the onboard Intel
®

chipset.
•
These connectors are set to
[AHCI Mode]
by default. If you intend to create a Serial
ATA RAID set using these connectors, set the SATA Mode item in the BIOS to
[RAID
Mode]
. Refer to section
