Serial ATA
Serial ATA is a storage interface that is compliant with SATA 1.0a specifica-
tion. SATA 3.0 supports speed up to 6Gb/s while SATA 2.0 supports speed up to
3Gb/s. This improves hard drive performance faster than the standard parallel
ATA whose data transfer rate is 100MB/s. The board supports RAID 0/1/5/10.
Gigabit LAN
The Intel WG82579LM PHY and Intel WG82574L PCI Express Gigabit controllers
support up to 1Gbps data transmission.
USB
The system board supports the new USB 3.0. It is capable of running at a maxi-
mum transmission speed of up to 5 Gbit/s (625 MB/s) and is faster than USB 2.0
(480 Mbit/s, or 60 MB/s) and USB 1.1 (12Mb/s). USB 3.0 reduces the time re-
quired for data transmission, reduces power consumption, and is backward com-
patible with USB 2.0. It is a marked improvement in device transfer speeds
between your computer and a wide range of simultaneously accessible exter-
nal Plug and Play peripherals.
Wake-On-LAN
This feature allows the network to remotely wake up a Soft Power Down (Soft-
Off) PC. It is supported via the onboard LAN port or via a PCI LAN card that uses
the PCI PME (Power Management Event) signal. However, if your system is in the
Suspend mode, you can power-on the system only through an IRQ or DMA inter-
rupt.
Important:
The 5V_standby power source of your power supply must support
≥720mA.
Wake-On-PS/2
This function allows you to use the PS/2 keyboard or PS/2 mouse to power-on
the system.
Important:
The 5V_standby power source of your power supply must support
≥720mA.
