Serial ATA RAID connectors [black] (7-pin
EXT_SATA1-2)
These connectors are for Serial ATA signal cables that support Serial ATA
hard disk drives. To congure RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5 or RAID 10, install an
internal Serial ATA hard disk drive to one of these connectors and an external
Serial ATA drive to one of the external SATA ports.
Before creating a RAID set using Serial ATA hard disks, make sure that you
have connected the Serial ATA signal cables and installed Serial ATA hard disk
drives; otherwise, you cannot enter the Marvell RAID utility and SATA BIOS
setup during POST.
