Hello. I am hoping the community can help with this as I cannot find a diagnostic/specs for my motherboard anywhere.  What is the difference between the various SATA ports on my motherboard? SATA0 may for boot as it is colored red, but SATA1 and SATA2 each have other colors (Blue, black?) and I wonder if this relates to throughput speed.  

 

I appreciate any insight that any of you can offer!

Hp, hardly gives this type of information anymore
port zero, must be used, in priority when using a system hdd
there is often a port or two, more or less fast, but I think more rare with new computers
I tried, some software, but not very convincing, because it will only give the information if the disk is in place
like with intel app
I hadn't found anything reliable that could demonstrate the port speed directly

Thanks for the response.  Quite frustrating that there doesn't seem to be a way to get more definitive info from HP about these motherboards and the SATA port specs.

Regardless, this is helpful, and I appreciate your insights on this !
