Hi guys,

I am using the above board and 2 SSDs in a Coolermaster Storm Enforcer case.

My issue is that I am unable to use the angled SATA leads that come with the board when installing both the drives as the cables are angled. I can't have the two straight ends going into the drives as that leaves two angled ends, both of which, won't fit on to the board together due to be being angled. And vice-versa. Even mixing them up (straight & angled on board and drives) doesn't work.

Boy, I hope I explained that right!

My question is: The board comes with 2 Intel and 2 Asmedia SATA 6.0gbs ports. Are they both the same in that can I use each of them without any lose of speed?

Or if someone can decipher what it is that I am trying to say, can you suggest anything else?

Thanks
