Connecting the Serial ATA (SATA) Cables  
SATA cables support the Serial ATA protocol.  Each cable can be used to connect a 
single 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 20, A) and attach the other end of the 
cable to the SATA drive 
(Figure 20, B).
