Hard Disk Drive (HDD) is, and should be connected to a SATA (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment) or PATA(Parallel Advanced Technology Attachment). Connecting to one of these ports will enable the motherboard, or rather the whole computer to read the hard disk drive. Also, it should be connected to one of the power supply cables to be able to power up the hard disk. Sometimes, there are attachments or enclosures that enables the hard disk to connect to a computer using USB.
