5-1-2 Configuring GIGABYTE SATA2/JMB322 SATA Controller

A. Installing SATA hard drive(s) in your computer
Attach one end of the SATA signal cable to the rear of the SATA hard drive and the other end to available SATA
port on the motherboard. On this motherboard, the GSATA2_0~3 ports are supported by the GIGABYTE SATA2/
JMB322 SATA controller.) Then connect the power connector from your power supply to the hard drive.
B. Enabling the SATA controllers and configuring hard drive mode in BIOS Setup

Step 1:
Turn on your computer and press <Delete> to enter BIOS Setup during the POST. In BIOS Setup, go to
Integrated Peripherals, ensure that Onboard SATA/IDE Device is enabled. (We recommend that
