Introduction Thank you for purchasing a StarTech.com 4 port PCI-E SATA Card. Now, you’ll be able to maximize your computer SATA capability, while using only a single PCI-Express slot. With four internal SATA ports, and two eSATA ports, you’ll be able to add the speed and reliability of SATA to your internal storage, with the option of using an eSATA external storage device.
F. Ports A to D are internal SATA ports, while ports E and F are external SATA ports. By changing the jumper setting on PEXSATA24E circuit board, you will be able to utilize four of the ports simultaneously. Please designate which ports you wish to use, by adjusting jumper settings according to the chart below.
Please note: The following instructions assume that the SATA drives that will be connected to PEXSATA24E have been physically installed within the computer chassis. If this is not the case, and you require instruction on how to install the hard drive in the computer chassis, please consult the documentation that accompanied your purchase of the hard drive/computer.
5. If a floppy drive is available on the host system, attach PEXSATA24E to the Serial ATA drive, using a SATA (data) cable. If no floppy drive is available, please skip to the section entitled Installation Without a Floppy Drive 6.
After restart, the setup process will resume installing the new drive(s). Installation Without a Floppy Drive In the absence of an available floppy drive for driver installation, once PEXSATA24E has been installed within the computer: 1. Connect the fresh (blank) drive to the motherboard SATA controller.
(if necessary, please consult documentation that accompanied purchase of computer). 5. Attach PEXSATA24E to the Serial ATA drive, using a SATA (data) cable. 6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 for each remaining hard drive that will be connected (internally) to PEXSATA24E.
