Putting together my first build, Went with an I7 920 set up
All is going well, but I have a couple questions, Rather Safe then Sorry

1: The EATX12 volt pin, Asus manual tells me Not to forget to connect my 4pin/8pin EATX12 v power plug, Ok sounds simple enough, but the mobo had a back cover over the left 4 pin connector, So does Asus want me to only use the right 4 port connector? or do I pull off the blank cover on the left side and plug Both 4 pin connectors In? My power Supply
is a TX650w and it has 2-4 port 12 volt plugs

2: Never dealt with E Sata before, I bought a coolermaster rc690 case. There is a E Sata port on the top of the case and the cable needs to be plugged into the mobo, I guess? I didn't find ANY mention of E Sata in the Asus manual. The connector looks just like a regular Sata connector, So do I just plug the E Sata cable into one of the 6 Sata connectors on my mobo>

The two 4-port plugs should have been connected together as an 8-pin you can separate. You should really use all 8 pins to power an i7 CPU. Your case's e-SATA port is a regular S-ATA to e-SATA adaptor in disguise, it plugs into your motherboards normal S-ATA port.
