General Installation Guidelines

SATA connectors on the system board are labeled SATA0 and SATA1. Hard drives must be connected to
SATA0, while any other SATA devices (like an optical drive) must be connected to SATA1. For example,
if you have a SATA hard drive and a SATA optical drive, connect the hard drive to the SATA0, and
connect the SATA optical drive to the SATA1 connector. (See "System Board Components" on page 172
for the location of the SATA connectors on the system board.)
