Serial ATA, otherwise known as SATA is an interface used for connecting optical drives, hard disk drives (aka hard drive), and solid-state drives to the bus adapters for a host. In other words, SATA connects computer drives to computers.
Solid-state drives are computer storage devices, similar to a hard disk drive, that does not contain moving components, unlike hard disk drive that contain moving parts. Solid-state drives connect to computers using interfaces like Serial ATA.
This question is similar to asking why is usb mouse better than a usb port. One is not necessarily "better" than the other because even though they work together, they both do different things.
