Does an ATA100 hard disk have the same interface as a Serial ATA150 hard disk?
No. ATA100 uses an 80pin ribbon cable and the Serial-ATA uses a much smaller, red 7pin cable.
Multimedia player that supports ide 133 hdd storage capacity up to 500gb can you use a 500gb eide hard drive with interface eide 100 mb?
ATA133 is slightly faster but it's nothing you'd notice much because it's referring to burst data transfer rates, not sustained. You can use either ATA100 or ATA133 hard drives in your computer, but not all motherboards chipsets support ATA133. If your motherboard supports only ATA100 and you install a ATA133 hard drive, it'll just run at ATA100 speeds. Likewise if your motherboard supports ATA133 and you install a ATA100 hard drive, it'll just run at ATA100. This is a direct quote from a forum....I had to do a lot of searching. SOOOO...... Go ahead and buy it...I did!!! "Phsyche 500GB 3.5 Inch,One Button Backup HDD Media Player USD 94.43" http://www.half2have.com/
Is ATA100 hard disk compatible with ATA150 mother board?
Not necessarily. "ATA-150" is SATA. If your motherboard has an IDE controller, the disk will work. If the board has only SATA, you will not be able to connect the drive without an adapter.
What does ATA stand for when seen in the name of Western Digital ATA100 products?
ATA is an acronym commonly used when referring to the method that data is transferred, otherwise known as the BUS, ATA stands for AT Attachment and the 100 refers to the data transfer speed which in this case would be up to a maximum of 100 MegaBytes per second.
How to Access a denied hard disk?
If you locked yourself out without remembering the password, erase the partition. If you locked yourself out of your drive with a third party software utility, look on the internet for "forensics tools" and retrieve the info then delete partition. If you have just installed a drive on to your PC and its telling you "Access Denied" then you have a "Root Kit" in your partition, you can save it by removing the root kit with an application such as "Search and destroy". If you have just installed it and found out there is no root kit after the scan then the HDD is damaged or (only if it is a parallel hdd such as ata100 and 133) check the front for the jumper settings and make sure it isint on the factory parking mode. And finally if it happened when the drive was installed in your PC without having a thord party locking software installed then the chipset on the HDD is damaged probably from overheating (just a guess) or old age
Is a PCI express 16 bus or the latest AGP bus faster?
PCI x16 's bandwith far exceeds that of all other current expansion slots on home PC's. In other words make sure all your add-on cards are of this type if you motherboard can handle it. The Following table should give a good measurement of where we are at:Common Buses and their Max Bandwidth PCI 132 MB/s AGP 8X 2,100 MB/s PCI Express 1x 250 [500]* MB/s PCI Express 2x 500 [1000]* MB/s PCI Express 4x 1000 [2000]* MB/s PCI Express 8x 2000 [4000]* MB/s PCI Express 16x 4000 [8000]* MB/s PCI Express 32x 8000 [16000]* MB/s IDE (ATA100) 100 MB/s IDE (ATA133) 133 MB/s SATA 150 MB/s Gigabit Ethernet 125 MB/s IEEE1394B [Firewire] 100 MB/s* Note - Since PCI Express is a serial based technology, data can be sent over the bus in two directions at once. Normal PCI is Parallel, and as such all data goes in one direction around the loop. Each 1x lane in PCI Express can transmit in both directions at once. In the table the first number is the bandwidth in one direction and the second number is the combined bandwidth in both directions. Also please note that in PCI Express bandwidth is not shared the same way as in PCI, so there is less congestion on the bus.
What kind of hard drives do laptops use?
3.5 inch drives, internal are most common. Most are are standard with a rotating metalic drum. Some are Solid State Drives (SSDs) The SSD drives are new. SSD drives have no moving prices but are pricy at this time. Most have IDE, some newer ones have SATA interfaces. Drum rotation speeds and access times are slower than that of their larger 5.25" counterparts used in desk tops, servers, and workstations.
