My motherboard has 4 sata data ports.
3 are labeled as sata
1 is labeled esata
They have identical connectors (that l-shape)
I have hooked up my sata opitcal drive to it with a regular sata data cable and it seems to be working fine.
Can using it this way harm anything?
also is there a way to create more data ports? can a data cable be split like a power cable can?
