OK. I'm not going to argue the point. All I know is this, the cable that
came with the case will plug into any SATA connector on my mobo. There is
nothing marking a eSATA port on there.
There's nothing to argue. On your motherboard all ports are eSATA compatible.
On my DH55HC only two of the 6 are eSATA compatible:

In the picture you can see 6 ports on the upper right. 4 are black, 2
are red. The two red ones are the only ones eSATA compatible.
Your machine is put together perfectly AFAICT.

You have red and black connectors where mine are blue. Yours physically
look like mine except for the colors. They have the same L shape
thingy. Spell checker don't like thingy so I need to trademark that
word. lol

That is my rig but I have added a couple things since then. I also
moved the ram to the outer slot. My CPU fan was rubbing on it a bit. I
got to get shorter sticks for the inner slots. The red wire that can
barely be seen is the cable that goes to the front eSATA plug. That pic
doesn't show it well at all tho.
