i'm building a new computer and have pretty much everything installed and plugged in.
however, i'm really confused about all the SATA connectors on this board.
there's 10 sata connectors total.
6 Sata2 (sata 3 Gb/s connectors, controlled by ICH10R)
2 GSata2 (sata 3 Gb/s connectors, controlled by Gigabyte Sata2)
2 Gsata3 (sata 6 Gb/s connectors, controlled by Marvell 9128)
how should i use and connect the different sata cables to these connectors?
should i connect the sata hard drive to the Sata 3? 'cuz it's faster right?
and what is the difference between the 6 Sata 2 controlled by ICH10R and the 2 Gsata2 controlled by gigabyte sata2?
then there's this ATA serial cable (red)(which looks exactly like a sata cable from my case's front panel.... which sata connector should i plug this into?
if someone could explain the differences between these and how and when to use which sata connector, i would greatly appreciate it.
