9) GSATA2_0/GSATA2_1 (SATA 3Gb/s Connectors, Controlled by GIGABYTE SATA2, Purple)
The SATA connectors conform to SATA 3Gb/s standard and are compatible with SATA 1.5Gb/s standard.
Each SATA connector supports a single SATA device. The GIGABYTE SATA2 controller supports RAID 0
and RAID 1. Refer to Chapter 5, "Configuring SATA Hard Drive(s)," for instructions on configuring a RAID
array.
A RAID 0 or RAID 1 configuration requires at least two hard drives. If more than two hard drives
are to be used, the total number of hard drives must be an even number.
10) PWR_LED (System Power LED Header)
This header can be used to connect a system power LED on the chassis to indicate system power
status. The LED is on when the system is operating. The LED keeps blinking when the system is in S1
sleep state. The LED is off when the system is in S3/S4 sleep state or powered off (S5).
