This board supports 6 USB ports. On the rear of
the PCB, you can see the version of the board - AS45 v1.2. The other connectors
are the 1394 extension connectors. On the left of the board, you can see the
jumpers for configuring the 6 ch audio.
2
ATA-133 RAID channels supported by Highpoint HPT372 chipset. Next to the yellow
RAID connectors are the S-ATA connectors. The supporting chipset is next to it.
On the right hand top corner of the photo below, you can see two switches, this
design is probably borrowed from SiS Reference board. Instead of using your
screw driver to short the power on or reset pins, you can press on the Power On
and Reset buttons for easy testing of the mainboard.
