of hubub all over the internets about this but Intel's Sandy bridge chipsets that is the p67 and h67 chipsets are affected by a bit of an issue that can cause the SATA 2 3 gbit pers second ports on your motherboard to degrade slowly over time and then die okay so basically right now is if you look around on the major etail sites you probably can't buy a Sandy Bridge board looks like it's probably going to be around the April May time frame before you can actually buy a Sandy Bridge board but I'm going to show you guys if you already have a system based on p67 or h67 chipsets how you can prevent this issue from affecting you in the near term while you wait for the replacement boards to come on the market and for yours to be swapped for one okay so you can see right here the way I have my Sandy Bridge system set up is that I have my two SATA 2 devices that is my DVD burner as well as my Intel x25 M SSD plugged into these two ports so you can see right here that these are SATA 3g5 SATA 3 G6 SATA 3 G3 and SATA 3 G4 so what I'm going to do and you're going to need to consult the manual of your particular motherboard find the section about the internal IO connectors and which ones are which in this case they are labeled on the board and you are going to want to take those ports unplug them from any devices and plug them into one of the SATA 3 6 gbit pers second ports on your board so in this case these two are running off the Intel chipset and those are still okay even though they're running off the same chipset as the SATA 23 gbit per second ports and I could also plug them into these ones which are running off of a third party chipset so any one of these four port is fine to run my devices off of in the meantime now bear in mind that Intel recommends or Intel advises that the SATA 2 3 gbit per second ports are more likely to die from heavy use so by avoiding using those ports or let's say for example you have a three Drive configuration you have an SSD a hard drive and you have an optical drive and you only have two SATA 3 6 GB per second ports well Intel recommends you lightly use the SATA 2 ports if you have to so you take your SSD and your hard drive and you plug them into these ones so you don't get any data corruption or potentially even data loss by using the good say the 3 6 gbit per second ports and then you take your optical drive which unless you're burning a DVD which probably is a very lowrisk sort of thing if something goes wrong so you take any sort of non-critical devices and plug those into the SATA 2 3 gbit per second ports so thank you for checking out my video today on lineus Tech tips and don't forget to subscribe"}
