General Installation Guidelines
Connect serial ATA hard drives to the SATA0 - SATA3 connectors on the system board. Connect
CD/DVD drives to the IDE connector.
When you connect two IDE devices to a single IDE interface cable and configure them for the
cable select setting, the device attached to the last connector on the interface cable is the
primary or the boot device (drive 0), and the device attached to the middle connector on the
interface cable is the secondary device (drive 1). See the drive documentation in your upgrade
kit for information on configuring devices for the cable select setting.
