Installing the Controller
In this Chapter...
Overview
To install the controller and drives, all you need is one or two of
each the following:
■ Serial ATA hard disk drives
■ Serial ATA cables (supplied in this kit)
Configuration of Serial ATA devices is simple for the following
reasons:
■ There are no jumpers or switches to set on the controller or hard
drives.
■ The cable ends are identical, so you don’t need to worry about
which end to attach to the controller and which to the drive.
■ The interface cable connectors, controller connectors, and hard
drive connectors are all keyed so that you can insert them in
only one direction.
