Quick Installation Guide
Note:
The SATA cable connectors must match your HDD cage.
For example: Channel 1 of RAID Card connects to channel 1
of HDD cage, channel 2 of RAID Card connects to channel 2 of
HDD cage, and follow this rule.
Step 3. Mount the Cages or Drives
Remove the front bezel from the computer chassis and install the
cages or SATA drives in the computer chassis. Loading drives to the
drive tray if cages are installed. Be sure that the power is connected to
either the Cage backplane or the individual drives.
Step 4. Connect the SATA cable
The ARC-1200 SATA RAID controller has two SATA internal connectors,
use the cables which included in your kit. Connect the controller to the
SATA hard drives. The cable connectors are all identical, so it does not
matter which end you connect to your controller, SATA hard drive, or
cage backplane SATA connector. Refer to Figure1-1 to view connector
locations on the controller.
