Bracket, Drive, & Host Installation
Connecting SATA Drives
SATA Drives use a 7 Pin Cable that connects the drive mechanism
directly to the PCI Host Adapter... one drive mechanism per channel. The
connector has an “L” shape and can only be plugged in one way. Care
should be taken when inserting the cable as the connector is a little delicate
and can be broken if the cable is inserted incorrectly.
The power to a SATA Drive can be from
either the Legacy connector or the SATA
Power Connector. In this kit we will power
the drives using the SATA Power Connectors.
