ASrock 939SLI-eSATA2 (ULi M1697) Intro 1/5
Bluetooth 8 Feb 2006

ASrock 939SLI-eSATA2

Right after the sale of the 775XFire-eSATA2 board which supports the dual graphics technology, ASrock releases yet another surprise for all its users - ASrock 939SLI-eSATA2. ASrock 939SLI-eSATA2 is the first board manufactured that supports the ULi M1697 single K8 chipset mainboard that comes with SLI and eSATA2 support. The board comes with 2 PCIex16 slots which can be configured to work in a single PCIe x16 mode or Dual PCIe x8. This allows SLI operation by pairing up two similar GeForce 6600, 6800 or 7800 cards and run it in tandem to improve graphics performance.

On top of all this, the 939SLI-eSATA2 also supports eSATA2 ports. This allows you to hook up eSATA2 enclosures which allows SATA HDD to be connected externally without compromising the speed in contrast to the lower performing USB or 1394 interfaces. The board also features the Future CPU port which allows one to upgrade to the new AM2 940 pin processor in the near future.

The mainboard comes with 4 ports of Serial ATA II 3.0Gb/s, RAID 0, 1, 0+1, JBOD and RAID 5, and "Hot Plug" functions, and 2 ATA 133 IDE ports, 2 ports of eSATAII 3.0Gb/s (shared with 2 SATAII ports), support "Hot Plug" function. 5.1 Channel with High Definition Audio, 10/100 Ethernet LAN is supported. The board is also Windows Vista Hardware Ready ROHS compliant.
