SATA Bus Connector
Some PC motherboards have a built in SATA bus connector. These
SATA bus connectors are compatible with Maxtor DiamondMax Plus9
hard disk drives.If the motherboard has a SATA connector, simply
connect a 7 pin SATA cable between the drive and the motherboard.

Adapter Board
If your PC motherboard does not contain a built-in SATA bus interface
connector, you must install an SATA bus adapter board and connecting
cable to allow the drive to interface with the motherboard. Maxtor does
not supply such an adapter board, but they are available from several
third-party vendors.

adapter board to ensure signal compatibility between the adapter board
and the drive. Also, make sure that the adapter board jumper settings
are appropriate.
