2. Serial ATA connectors (7-pin SATA1, SATA2)
These next generation connectors support the thin Serial ATA cables
for Serial ATA hard disks. The current Serial ATA interface allows up to
150 MB/s data transfer rate, faster than the standard parallel ATA with
133 MB/s (Ultra ATA/133).
If you installed Serial ATA hard disks, you may create a RAID 0/RAID 1
configuration using the RAID feature of the Intel® 6300ESB ICH. Refer
to page 5-26 to 5-27 for the SATA configuration.
