Connecting Serial ATA (SATA) Cables
SATA cables support the Serial ATA protocol. Each cable can be used to connect one
internal SATA drive to the Desktop Board. 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 18, A) and attach the other end of the
cable to the SATA drive
(Figure 18, B).
