Sata Interfaces; Intel Rapid Storage Technology; Real-Time Clock Subsystem - Intel DB85FL Specification

Intel Desktop Board DB85FL Technical Product Specification
1.5.3

SATA Interfaces

The board provides six SATA connectors, through the PCH, which support one device
each:
Four SATA 6.0 Gb/s interfaces through the Intel B85 Express Chipset with SATA
•
ACHI support (blue)
• Two SATA 3.0 Gb/s interfaces through the Intel B85 Express Chipset with SATA
ACHI support (black)
The PCH provides independent SATA ports with a theoretical maximum transfer rate of
6.0 Gb/s for four ports and 3.0 Gb/s for two ports. A point-to-point interface is used
for host-to-device connections.
The PCH supports the Serial ATA Specification, Revision 3.0. The PCH also supports
several optional sections of the Serial ATA II: Extensions to Serial ATA 1.0
Specification, Revision 1.0 (AHCI support is required for some elements).

Real-Time Clock Subsystem

A coin-cell battery (CR2032) powers the real-time clock and CMOS memory. When
the computer is not plugged into a wall socket, the battery has an estimated life of
three years. When the computer is plugged in, the standby current from the power
supply extends the life of the battery. The clock is accurate to ± 13 minutes/year at
25 ºC with 3.3 V
NOTE
If the battery and AC power fail, date and time values will be reset and the user will be
notified during the Power-On Self-Test (POST).
When the voltage drops below a certain level, the BIOS Setup program settings stored
in CMOS RAM (for example, the date and time) might not be accurate. Replace the
battery with an equivalent one. Figure 1 on page 13 shows the location of the battery.
