serial ata cable is a computer bus interface for connecting host bus adapters to mass storage devices such as hard disk drives and optical drives. Serial ATA was designed to replace the older ATA (AT Attachment) standard (also known as EIDE), offering several advantages over the older parallel ATA (PATA) interface: reduced cable-bulk and cost (7 conductors versus 40), native hot swapping, faster data transfer through higher signalling rates, and more efficient transfer through an (optional) I/O queuing protocol.

1Sata cable is used to connect storage devices such as HDD,CE-ROM,DVD-ROM,and DC-RW
2 Compliant with Serial ATA II Specifications
3 Specially designed to reduce cable clutter and improve system airflow.
4.Fast data transfer rate up to 300 MB/Sec
You cant connect two devices to the same sata cable.
SATA, or serial advanced technology attachment, connects the motherboard to hard drives and optical drives. This cable is inserted into the SATA slot on the motherboard.
sata cable has how meny wires inside
SATA Data Cable Has 7 Conductors. yes 7 internal conductors.
1m for SATA I, 2m for SATA II
no, sata drives transfer all of the data through the sata cable
NO!
No. Ribbon cables are flat and wide. The SATA cable was designed to be narrow and slightly thicker, so it would not block as much air flow in the case.
SATA (Serial ATA) drives are normal drives that use the SATA interface when connecting to a PC. A SATA cable is used to bridge the gap between the drive and the computers motherboard and a separate cable is used to provide power to the drive.USB, in a similar way to SATA, refers to an interface. It is possible to use a USB cable to connect a SATA drive to a USB port but only if you use an appropriate SATA-USB adapter.Most, if not all, external hard-drive kits, which may be sold as 'USB hard-drives', will contain a SATA drive inside a drive caddy with a USB cable connecting it to the PC. The caddy will already have the SATA-USB adapter built into it, negating the need to go and buy one yourself.Please don't try and wedge a USB cable straight into the back of a SATA drive as it will no doubt cause damage.

SATA power connector is a type of power cable with which we can provide Disks power from the mother board. SATA Power cables are connected from sata point on motherboard to the drive.
Check the motherboard. You can connect two drives to a single parallel cable. Most traditional motherboards have two IDE sockets and you can run a maximum of four drives. (one cable per socket, two drives per cable) but you need to configure the drives with jumpers as "primary" and "slave". Many of the newer motherboards have a "SATA" (Serial ATA) socket or some combination of SATA and IDE but you'd have to use a SATA drive with a SATA cable to use the SATA socket.
