DO NOT insert a different connector to the external SATA port.

DO NOT connect a keyboard/mouse to any USB 3.0 port when installing Windows® operating system.

Due to USB 3.0 controller limitation, USB 3.0 devices can only be used under Windows® OS environment and after the USB 3.0 driver installation.

USB 3.0 devices can only be used as data storage only.

We strongly recommend that you connect USB 3.0 devices to USB 3.0 ports for faster and better performance for your USB 3.0 devices.

If you want to use the hot-plug function of the external SATA ports, you have to set the ASM1061 Storage Controller item in the BIOS setting to [Enabled] and install the ASM1061 Controller Driver from the motherboard support DVD. Refer to section 3.5.6
