XPS 8700, SATA port specifications
Hello,
I have a Dell XPS 8700 running WIN7..My motherboard is a Dell 0KWVT8. Can anyone please tell me the speeds of ALL SATA ports on this MB?
Also, what does the color-code on the Sata ports mean?
I'm hooking up Hard drives to the MB and need to know all the speeds so that I can hook them up correctly.
thanks

Read page 14 in the Service Manual. :Idea:
They're all listed as SATA 3.0. Besides, they should be backward compatible with SATA 2 drives, and possibly with some SATA 1 drives.
EDIT:
Blue = boot drive
White = optical drive (usually)
