This section describes how to install a SATA Hard Drive.
About SATA Connectors
Your motherboard features two SATA connectors supporting a total of two drives.
SATA refers to Serial ATA (Advanced Technology Attachment) is the standard
interface for the IDE hard drives which are currently used in most PCs. These
connectors are well designed and will only fit in one orientation. Locate the SATA
connectors on the motherboard and follow the illustration below to install the SATA
hard drives.
Installing Serial ATA Hard Drives
To install the Serial ATA (SATA) hard drives, use the SATA cable that supports the Serial
ATA protocol. This SATA cable comes with a SATA power cable. You can connect either
end of the SATA cable to the SATA hard drive or the connector on the motherboard.
Refer to the illustration below for proper installation:
1 Attach either cable end to the connector on the motherboard.
2 Attach the other cable end to the SATA hard drive.
3 Attach the SATA power cable to the SATA hard drive and connect the other
end to the power supply.
