Looks like there may be a block of 2 SATA3 connectors - the actual approach angle of them is 90 degrees off compared to the two drives that are plugged in to the other block. I guess I expected all of the SATA connectors to use the same connector block on the MOBO like in your photo. With the open 2 at 90 degrees, it is hard to see the connectors, but here is where my iPhone camera came in handy - sure enough that's what they are and the screen printing on the MOBO has miniscule text next to this which says SATA3. Approach angle for the cables looks to be in-plane with the MOBO.

I have one open PCI Express x1 per your photo and a PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot

The box came with a wireless card w/antennae in the other PCI Express x1 slot - which I think I have no need for since this will plug directly into the router.

No FDD or IDE connectors - which is o.k. with me.

Edit - just realized that Microcenter's specs were pretty detailed when I looked at them. Here's the machine:

Here's the MOBO and sure enough, 4 SATA connections:
