HP xw9300 SATA Guidelines

SATA Guidelines

NOTE: These systems support a mixed configuration of SCSI and SATA hard drives. The HP xw9300 Workstation does not support IDE hard drives.

When installing and operating SATA devices:

•Connect the SATA hard drive from the system board to the hard drive with the SATA cable (326965- 006).

•If using a SATA controller card, connect the 4-4 pin LED cable (included with SATA controller board) from the card header “JP1” (4-pin header) to the system board header labeled “HD LED” (4-pin header at P29).
