SATA and SAS Connections

Note the following conditions when connecting the Serial ATA and fl oppy disk drive
cables:
• Be sure to use the correct cable for each connector. Refer to Page 1-1 for cables
that came with your shipment.
• A red mark on a wire indicates the location of pin 1.

SATA/SAS Connections (SAS: X8DTH-6/6F)

Six Serial ATA (SATA) connectors (I-SATA 0~5)
are located on the motherboard. In addition to
six SATA ports, eight SAS connections are also
located on the X8DTH-6/6F. These Serial Link
connections provide faster data transmission
than the connections of traditional Parallel ATA.
The SATA connectors are supported by the Intel
ICH10R. The SAS connectors on the X8DTH-
6/6F are supported by the LSI SAS 2 controller.
See the table on the right for pin defi nitions.
