Intel Desktop Board DZ68BC Product Guide Intel® Z68 Express Chipset The Intel Z68 Express Chipset consists of the Intel Z68 PCH. The Intel Z68 PCH includes Intel Rapid Storage Technology and Intel Smart Response Technology. Intel® Rapid Storage Technology Intel Rapid Storage Technology version 10.6 enables Intel Smart Response Technology and full Serial ATA (SATA) interface speed up to 6 Gb/s to support next-generation Solid State Drives (SSDs) or traditional Hard Disk Drives (HDDs). Intel Rapid Storage Technology 10.6 also adds support for greater than 2.2 TB HDDs in a RAID configuration. Intel® Smart Response Technology Intel Smart Response Technology supports a single drive volume that combines the high-performance benefits of SSDs with the large storage capacities of traditional HDDs to dramatically increase system responsiveness and enable faster boot times. The two technologies (SSD and HDD) appear as a single C:\ drive letter that provides you with the familiar storage identifier. The system automatically learns which files you access frequently and then copies them from the HDD to the SSD. The next time you request these files, the system loads them from the fast SSD rather than the slower HDD. For infrequently-used files, the system loads them from the HDD when you need them. For more information on Intel Smart Response Technology refer to http://download.intel.com/design/flash/nand/325554.pdf or download the user guide at http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/dz68db/sb/CS032499.htm?wapkw=(smart+response) Audio Subsystem The onboard audio subsystem consists of the following components: • Intel Z68 PCH • Realtek ALC892 codec The subsystem has the following headers and connectors: • Back panel audio connectors, including an S/PDIF out optical port. • Advanced jack sense for the back panel audio connectors that enables the audio codec to recognize the device that is connected to an audio port • Front panel audio header that supports Intel HD Audio and AC '97 Audio. This header provides mic in and line out signals for front panel audio connectors. • An onboard S/PDIF output header 16

Z68 Express Chipset
The Intel Z68 Express Chipset consists of the Intel Z68 PCH.
The Intel Z68 PCH
includes Intel Rapid Storage Technology and Intel Smart Response Technology.

Rapid Storage Technology
Intel Rapid Storage Technology version 10.6 enables Intel Smart Response Technology
and full Serial ATA (SATA) interface speed up to 6 Gb/s to support next-generation
Solid State Drives (SSDs) or traditional Hard Disk Drives (HDDs).

Intel Smart Response Technology supports a single drive volume that combines the
high-performance benefits of SSDs with the large storage capacities of traditional
HDDs to dramatically increase system responsiveness and enable faster boot times.
The two technologies (SSD and HDD) appear as a single C:\ drive letter that provides
you with the familiar storage identifier.
The system automatically learns which files you access frequently and then copies
them from the HDD to the SSD.
The next time you request these files, the system
loads them from the fast SSD rather than the slower HDD.
For infrequently-used files,
the system loads them from the HDD when you need them.

Audio Subsystem
The onboard audio subsystem consists of the following components:
•
Intel Z68 PCH
•
Realtek ALC892 codec
The subsystem has the following headers and connectors:
•
Back panel audio connectors, including an S/PDIF out optical port.
•
Advanced jack sense for the back panel audio connectors that enables the audio
codec to recognize the device that is connected to an audio port
•
Front panel audio header that supports Intel HD Audio and AC ‘97 Audio.
This
header provides mic in and line out signals for front panel audio connectors.
•
An onboard S/PDIF output header
