The motherboard supports the Serial ATA technology through the Serial ATA
interfaces. The SATA specification allows for thinner, more flexible cables
with lower pin count, reduced voltage requirement, and up to 150 MB/s data
transfer rate. With the VIA VT8237R RAID controller onboard, the
motherboard supports RAID 0 and RAID 1 configuration using Serial ATA
hard disk drives. See pages 2-25 and 5-18 for details.
