The motherboard fully supports PCI Express, the latest I/O interconnect
technology that speeds up the PCI bus. PCI Express features point-to-point
serial interconnections between devices and allows higher clockspeeds by
carrying data in packets. This high speed interface is software compatible
with existing PCI specifications. See page 2-17 for details.

Serial ATA 3Gb/s technology
The motherboard supports the Serial ATA II 3 Gb/s technology through the
Serial ATA interfaces and the ULI M1575 Southbridge. The Serial ATA II 3
Gb/s specification provides twice the bandwidth of the current Serial ATA
products with a host of new features, including Native Command Queueing
(NCQ), and Power Management (PM) Implementation Algorithm. Serial ATA
allows for thinner, more flexible cables with lower pin count, reduced voltage
requirement. See page 2-23 for details.
