12. USB 2.0 ports 3 and 4. These two 4-pin Universal Serial Bus (USB) ports
are available for connecting USB 2.0 devices.
13. External SATA ports. These ports connect to external Serial ATA hard disk
drives. To configure a RAID 0, 1, 5 or 10 set, install an external Serial ATA
hard disk drive to the external Serial ATA port and an internal Serial ATA
hard disk drive to the onboard Serial ATA connectors labeled EXT_SATA1 or
EXT_SATA2.
The external SATA ports
support external Serial ATA
3.0 Gb/s devices. Longer
cables support higher power
requirements to deliver signal
up to two meters away, and
enables improved hot-swap
function.
• Before creating a RAID set using Serial ATA hard disks, make sure that you
have connected the Serial ATA signal cables and installed Serial ATA hard
disk drives; otherwise, you cannot enter the Marvell RAID utility and SATA
setup during POST.
• If you intend to create a RAID configuration using one of these connectors,
set the Marvell SATA/PATA Controller item in the BIOS to [RAID Mode].
See section 4.5.3 OnBoard Devices Configuration for details.
