STEP 1: Install the SATA hard disks into the drive bays of your chassis.
STEP 2: Connect the SATA power cable to the SATA hard disk.
STEP 3: Connect one end of the SATA data cable to the motherboard’s SATA
connector.
STEP 4: Connect the other end of the SATA data cable to the SATA hard disk.

1. If you plan to use RAID 0, RAID 1, or JBOD functions on SATA, SATA
HDDs must be operated in “RAID” mode.
2. “RAID” and “non-RAID” mode are options under “SATA Operation Mode” in
BIOS setup. Please refer to page 28 of User Manual in the support CD for
details. They need different drivers during actual operation.
