X10QBL-4CT/X10QBL-4 Motherboard User's Manual
2-10 SATA/SAS 3.0 Connections
SATA 3.0 Ports
Six SATA connections supported by Intel PCH 602
are located on the motherboard. I-SATA ports 0/1
support SATA 3.0 connections, while I-SATA ports
2-5 support SATA 2.0. In addition, I-SATA0/1 are
used with Supermicro SuperDOM (Disk-on-Module)
connectors, which are yellow SATADOM connectors
with power pins built-in and do not require separate
external power cables. These connectors are back-
compatible with non-Supermicro SATADOMs that
require external power supply. SATA ports provide
serial-link connections, which are faster than the
connections of Parallel ATA. These SATA connectors
provide serial-link connections, which are faster than
Parallel ATA connections. See the table on the right
for pin definitions.
SAS 3.0 Ports (for X10QBL-4CT only)
Eight SAS 3.0 connections (L-SAS 0-3, 4-7) supported by the LSI 3008 SAS
controller are located on the motherboard. The SAS connections are faster than
traditional SATA connections.
