SATA1~6:  SATA Connector 

Ths connector s a hgh-speed SATA nterface port. Each connector can connect to one 

SATA devce. SATA devces nclude dsk drves (HDD), sold state drves (SSD), and 

optcal drves (CD/ DVD/ Blu-Ray).

Important

Many SATA devces also need a power cable from the power supply. Such devces 

nclude dsk drves (HDD), sold state drves (SSD), and optcal drves (CD / DVD / 

Blu-Ray).  Please refer to the devce’s manual for further nformaton. 
Many computer cases also requre that large SATA devces, such as HDDs, SSDs, 

and optcal drves, be screwed down nto the case. Refer to the manual that came 

wth your computer case or your SATA devce for further nstallaton nstructons.  
Please do not fold the SATA cable at a 90-degree angle. Data loss may result durng 

transmsson otherwse.
SATA cables have dentcal plugs on ether sdes of the cable. However, t s rec-

ommended that the flat connector be connected to the manboard for space savng 

purposes.
