Thread: Asus P6T Deluxe V2 SATA port numbering

From the subsequent SATA harbors on an Asus P6T Deluxe V2, which one is SATA port 0, 1, 2 and 3? Where does SATA port 0 begin?

Thanks for the photo linkage. Going by the figuring that I can observe on the PC board, the orange connectors are the 2 SAS connectors and the red connectors are the SATA ports. The photo of the SAS/SATA connector area shows that the 2 SATA ports next to the SAS1 and SAS2 docks are SATA3 and SATA4. From earlier photo, it looks like the other two 90-degree SATA ports are SATA1 and SATA2, and the two "normal" SATA connectors are SATA5 and SATA6. Double-check the group on your board.

So centering on the four red ports then to the orange ports - the remaining two are SATA 3 and 4 and the right two (next to the IDE connector) is SATA 1 and 2? In the situation of SATA 1 and 2 (next to the IDE connector), is SATA 1 the port on top or the port right next to the board?

Thank you.

Stands on the SAS 1 and 2. I would believe the summit is SATA1 and the bottom SATA2 but it might be the other way about.

I have the p6t luxury v2 board. Only dissimilarity is no SAS. So opening from the SAS ports: the two red sata are sata3 (top) 4 (bottom), then sata1 (top) 2 (bottom). The two after that to the Southbridge heatsink is sata 5(top) and 6.

To answer aln688 question, SATA1 starts on the IDE connector surface.

I included puzzlement with this too. Thanks a lot my friend for clearing it up for us).

Easy method to perform this. Print out a graphic of your MB. Stop a single SATA drive into any port, blaze it up. Go into BIOS and observe what drive/port it shows. Write it on print out.
