I'm reading specifications of a Supermicro motherboard and at the storage part it says:
SCU 4x SATA ports (3Gbps) via SCU
What exactly is SCU?
 
More or less Intel's C600 series chipsets have the ability to drive up to eight additional 3.0gbps SAS or SATA ports. There are a bunch of configurations of the SCU so you can have different capabilities, RAID levels and etc.
