I don't *think* it matters. But i would probably put the boot drive on 1, optical on 2 and everything else after that.
Check the mobo manual to see if it specifies any particular order, but i doubt it will. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of FORC5 Sent: 29 September 2007 22:21 To: hardware@hardwaregroup.com Subject: [H] SATA cabling ? Putting my first all sata system, mb has 6 sata slots. do the roms go on 1,2 and boot on 3 or ??? Somehow I was thinking 1-4 were raid and 5-6 were for roms but I may be thinking wrong. raid disabled. currently have 4 drive trays on 1-4 and roms on5&6 but haven't powered it up yet. might be a dumb question, just sitting here after yard work and was pondering 8-) only 2 drives now, other trays for expansion. Case is a Supermicro 733T-645. Power supply fan never shuts off when plugged in. seems weird. stock fans designed for Supermicro mb's and run at turbine speeds plugged into a regular mb. replacing these, disappointed in that. Otherwise one of the nicest cases I ever worked on. dutch door hinge a little flimsy but may be designed like that to prevent case damage. fp -- Tallyho ! ]:8) Taglines below ! -- Fax me no questions, I'll Fax you no lies.
