I have a supermicro X10SRH motherboard (Supermicro | Products | Motherboards | Xeon® Boards | X10SRH-CLN4F)
From the documentation,this motherboard have 10 SATA ports like below:
So the question, is about the SATA DOM ports. I understand that they are specials in term of power distribution for the Device On Module. But does it means theses ports are usable only for SATA DOM or can i use for standard HDD/SSD ?
From the block-diagram, all of theses ports seems to be connected from the PCH.
They don't talk about if each ports have a 6Gb/s wire or if the PCH have a kind of switch ?
In reality, i would be sure than i can use safely theses ports in term of performance (it's for SSD SATA drives)
Thanks in advance,
Best regards.
