The MasterPanel was really easy to install into my computer. I just had to pop out the one front access panel cover I had left and put in four screws. Attaching the device to the system board was just as easy. The MasterPanel utilizes three SATA connectors to bring the functionality of your motherboard to the front of your case. If you are not planning on using the eSATA interface, you can easily leave that connector disconnected, decreasing the demands on your motherboard SATA connectors to two. The ATA interface on the front of the panel utilizes an SATA connector and has a built on SATA-to-ATA bridge chip to convert the signals.
