11. USB 2.0 ports 1 and 2. These two 4-pin Universal Serial Bus (USB) ports
are available for connecting USB 2.0 devices.
12. External SATA port. This port connects an external Serial ATA hard disk
drive. To configure a RAID 0, RAID 1, or JBOD set, install an external Serial
ATA hard disk drive and an internal Serial ATA hard disk drive connected to
the onboard Serial ATA connector labeled SATA_E2.
The external SATA port supports
external Serial ATA 3.0 Gb/s
devices. Longer cables support
higher power requirements to
deliver signal up to two meters
away, and enables improved hot-
swap function.

Before creating a RAID set using Serial ATA hard disks, make sure that you
have connected the Serial ATA signal cable and installed Serial ATA hard
disk drives; otherwise, you cannot enter the JMicron RAID utility and SATA
BIOS setup during POST.
If you intend to create a RAID configuration using this connector, set the
J-Micron eSATA/PATA Controller Mode item in the BIOS to [RAID].
Setting this item to [AHCI] supports Native Command Queuing (NCQ)
function. See section 4.4.5 Onboard Devices Configuration for details.
Refer to section 5.4 RAID configurations for details about configuring a
RAID 0, RAID 1, or JBOD.
DO NOT insert a different connector to this port.
DO NOT unplug the external Serial ATA box when a RAID 0 or JBOD is
configured.
