sequence.

Before you begin the SATA configuration, please prepare:

(a) Two SATA hard drives (to ensure optimal performance, it is

recommended that you use two hard drives with identical model

and capacity). If you do not want to create RAID with the SATA

controller, you may prepare only one hard drive.
