5-4. Connecting LED and SATA Cables
Connect the LED cable coming with the card to the HDD LED connector. For the
connection, see the figure below and the connection table. For the connection to the
motherboard, refer to the User's Guide of the server. If it is hard to connect the LED cable,
pull out the card from the PCI slot once and connect the cable to the card.
Next, connect a SATA cable to the SATA connector on the card. The channel number of the
SATA cable should be the same as the channel number (port number) of the card.
