Given there are only 4 I would expect them to be connected to the same sata device, but it could be that there are 2 2 port sata devices and the labeling denotes which of those 2 port devices they are connected to. The labeling is rather odd for it being 4 on the same device. What is the part number of motherboard? _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
