Important
●
Please do not fold the SATA or SATAe cable at a 90-degree angle. Data loss may
result during transmission otherwise.
●
SATA cable has identical plugs on either sides of the cable. However, it is
recommended that the flat connector be connected to the motherboard for space
saving purposes.
