Dual RAID solution

Onboard RAID controllers provide the motherboard with dual-RAID

functionality that allows you to select the best RAID solution using Serial

ATA devices.

The NVIDIA

nForce™4-4X chipset allows four Serial ATA hard disks with

RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 1+0, and JBOD configurations. See section "5.4.2

NVIDIA

RAID configurations" for details

The Silicon Image Sil3114 RAID controller supports RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID

0+1, and RAID 5 configurations for four Serial ATA hard disks. See page

2-23 and section "5.4.3 Silicon Image RAID configurations" for details.

Gigabit LAN

The motherboard comes with a Gigabit LAN controller built into the

NVIDIA

nForce™4-4X chipset to meet your growing networking needs.

The controller uses the PCI Express segment to provide faster data

bandwidth for your Internet, LAN, and file sharing requirements. See page

2-18 for details.

IEEE 1394a support

The IEEE 1394a interface provides high-speed and flexible PC connectivity

to a wide range of peripherals and devices compliant to IEEE 1394a

standards. The IEEE 1394a interface allows up to 400 Mbps transfer rates

through simple, low-cost, high-bandwidth asynchronous (real-time) data

interfacing between computers, peripherals, and consumer electronic

devices such as camcorders, VCRs, printers,TVs, and digital cameras. See

pages 2-18 and 2-28 for details.

USB 2.0 technology

The motherboard implements the Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0

specification, dramatically increasing the connection speed from the

12 Mbps bandwidth on USB 1.1 to a fast 480 Mbps on USB 2.0. USB 2.0 is

backward compatible with USB 1.1. See pages 2-19 and 2-25 for details.
