Connecting SATA Drives
Use the included SATA cables to connect internal SATA drives. Each cable can be used
to connect one internal SATA drive to the Desktop Board’s SATA connectors. The blue
SATA connectors support 6.0 Gb/s and slower speed SATA devices while the black
SATA connectors support 3.0 Gb/s and slower speed SATA devices. The red SATA
connector supports 3.0 Gb/s and slower speed SATA devices and can be used to
connect to an eSATA Port Adapter Bracket (not supplied) on the back panel.
For correct cable function:
1. Observe the precautions in “Before You Begin” on page 27.
2. Attach
one end
of the SATA cable to one of the SATA connectors on the board
(Figure 17, A) and attach the other end of the
cable to the
SATA drive data
connector (Figure 17, B).
