Memphis-S motherboard, want to add a 2nd hard drive

[Silverthunder]

I disconnected the original hardrive and I connected a new hard drive, reinstalled the operating system.  Now I want to set up the old hard drive as a second hardrive for storage.  

I did a lot of web searching to find the user manual for the memphis-S motherboard.  But, I could not find it.   I was planning to look in that user manual to see if I need to change any settings (jumpers?) on the motherboard before I connect the sata cable to the hard drive and the motherboard & then the power supply to the hardrive.  Also, maybe I have to change some settings in the UEFI?  

Does anyone know the steps involved or where I can get the owner's manual?

Heres the Support Page. There is not a hardware Manual as such but there is some information:

I think the problem you are going to face with a second hard drive is more physical...there is only a single 3.5 inch drive bay and a single 5.25 inch bay so where do you mount a second hard drive?

There will be no jumper, BIOS or UEFI settings, however. Just run SATA power to it and find an open SATA port on the motherboard for the data cable. You have 4 SATA ports.

Does it matter which of the 2 extra Sata ports on the motherboard I connect it to?  The 2 that I am already using are blue and the 2 free ones are orange and yellow (photo 1 attached).

Here is a photo of what I thought were jumpers for these Sata ports.  But, looking closer looks like those are for CMOS and Rom recovery.

For some reason, your link brings me to the  the HP 205 G1 product page.  

I have run into this problem before on the HP website.  it seems to be a recurring issue.

Were you ever able to get this resolved?

Have a similar PC, the HP Pavillion 500-205t with the Memphis-S motherboard and planning on adding a second internal HDD for file storage but unsure whether or not the additional two yellow SATA ports you noted are disabled or not.

Want to know whether we can just plug in HDD to the ports or not.
