and lower transfer rates and the black connectors support SATA 3 Gb/s and lower
transfer rates. For correct cable function:
1. Observe the precaution in “Before You Begin” on page 33.
2. Attach
one end of the SATA cable to one of the SATA connectors on the board
(Figure 21, A) and attach the other end of the
