3/4) CPU_FAN/SYS_FAN (Fan Headers)
The motherboard has a 4-pin CPU fan header (CPU_FAN), a 3-pin system fan header (SYS_FAN). Most
fan headers possess a foolproof insertion design. When connecting a fan cable, be sure to connect it in
the correct orientation (the black connector wire is the ground wire). The speed control function requires
the use of a fan with fan speed control design. For optimum heat dissipation, it is recommended that a
system fan be installed inside the chassis.
Be sure to connect fan cables to the fan headers to prevent your CPU and system from overheating. Overheating
•
may result in damage to the CPU or the system may hang.
These fan headers are not configuration jumper blocks. Do not place a jumper cap on the headers.

5) SATA2 0/1/2/3/4/5 (SATA 3Gb/s Connectors, Controlled by AMD SB710 South Bridge)
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 AMD SB710 South Bridge supports RAID 0,
RAID 1, RAID 10, and JBOD. Refer to Chapter 4, "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.
A RAID 10 configuration requires four hard drives.
