SATA backplane connections

A SATA backplane comes pre-installed in the TW510-E2 AA4 model. The
SATA backplane has four SATA signal and power connectors to support
Serial ATA hard disk drives. The backplane design incorporates a hot swap
feature to allow easy connection or removal of SATA hard disks. The LED
on the backplane connect to the front panel LED to indicate HDD status.
See section “1.6 LED information” for details.

Front side

The front side of the SATA backplane faces the front panel when installed.
This side includes four SATA connectors for the hot swap drive trays.

Each SATA connector is labeled
(CON1, CON3, CON5, CON7) so you
can easily determine their
counterpart connectors at the back
side of the backplane. Refer to the
table for reference.
