HDDs

This motherboard supports Hot Plug and Hot Swap functions for SATA / SATAII

Devices in RAID / AHCI mode. NVIDIA

chipset provides hardware support for

Advanced Host controller Interface (AHCI), a new operation interface for SATA host

controllers developed thru a joint industry effort. AHCI also provides usability

enhancements such as Hot Plug.

NOTE

What is Hot Plug Function?

If the SATA / SATAII HDDs are NOT set for RAID configuration, it is

called “Hot Plug” for the action to insert and remove the SATA / SATAII

HDDs while the system is still power-on and in working condition.

However, please note that it cannot perform Hot Plug if the OS has

been installed into the SATA / SATAII HDD.

What is Hot Swap Function?

If SATA / SATAII HDDs are built as RAID 1 or RAID 5 then it is called

“Hot Swap” for the action to insert and remove the SATA / SATAII

HDDs while the system is still power-on and in working condition.
