Connecting Serial ATA (SATA) Cables
SATA cables support the Serial ATA protocol. Each cable can be used to connect a
single SATA drive to the Desktop Board. For correct cable function:
1. Observe the precautions in "Before You Begin" on page 25.
2. Attach one
end the SATA cable to one of the SATA connectors on the board
(Figure 22, A).
3. Attach the
other end of the SATA cable to the SATA drive (Figure 22, B).
