How are drives connected to the motherboard?
Drives are linked by cables called SATA cables, these send data through the motherboard
IDE data cable?
This is a data ribbon cable is used for computer drives, like hard disk drives, Optical disk drives, and floppy disk drives. They are also referred to as PATA cables. They connect to parallel ports consisting of 20 pins in one row, and 19 in the second, for a total of 39 pins. IDE cables are now considered old, having been largely replaced by SATA cables, which connect to newer drives which run at more RPM. The SATA system communicates more quickly that the PATA system using IDE cables.

What internal PC component uses a wide flat ribbon cable to transmit data?
IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) devices such as hard drives and DVD drives use this old flat cable type (PATA = Parallel AT Attachment). These are now generally replaced by SATA (Serial AT Attachment), which exploits improved data controller speeds. See PATA in wikipedia. SCSI cables for multiple devices can be flat as well.
What is noonlebite?
A form of data stored on noodle fragments. Used in noodle computing where data is stored in noodle-like cables rather than magnetised disks (hard disk drives).
Which port is used to connect 2 computer's for data transfer?
Legacy computers use I/O and parallel ports for this. Newer ones can use Firewire, double-male USB cables, and even Ethernet cables for computer to computer data transfers.
What are two types of PATA data cables?
Under parallel ata, two types of ribbon cable are used. The 80-conductor ide cable has 40 pins and 80 wires Forty wires are used for communication and data, and an additional 40 ground wires reduce crosstalk on the cable. An older 40-conducror cable has 40 wires and 40 pins. the two types of cables are PATA and IDE cables which come in a 80-conductor IDE cable and a 40-conductor cable
