7. SATA 6Gb/s ports
The SATA 6Gb/s ports allows you to connect SATA devices such as optical disc
drives and hard disk drives via a SATA cable.
If you installed SATA storage devices, you can create a RAID 0, 1, and 10 configuration
through the onboard AMD B450 chipset.
• The slots are set to [AHCI] by default. If you intend to create a SATA RAID set using
these connectors, set the SATA Mode item in the BIOS to [RAID].
• SATA6G_5/6 ports will be disabled when M.2_1 is operating in SATA or PCIe mode.
• Before creating a RAID set, refer to the RAID Configuration Guide. You can
download the RAID Configuration Guide from the ASUS website.
