Accessories

The Epox board comes with a full set of driver diskettes for both on-board controllers - this is especially important for first-time Windows installation. The two IDE cables are also a plus. The package also contains two SATA cables and power adapter.

The software bundle on the driver CD includes Magic Flash for BIOS updates under Windows, the USDM monitoring tool, the PC Cillin antivirus app and Ghost for cloning storage media and partitions. We also note positively note the inclusion of a manual for the RAID controller from HighPoint. We like the user guide in English, too, as it covers all the key questions and installation details.
