What are the differences between a power cable a signal cable and a data cable?

Power cable is a thick cable connecting your computer to an electrical wall outlet. It can also be a thin wire connecting your modem or other device to a rectangular [ usually ] power supply to your electrical power bar or wall outlet. Data cables are much thinner, used mainly internally, and can be many wires attached together horizontally to form a wide ribbon of wires. However, a data cable can also be a much thicker cable connecting your modem, router, printer etc. to your computer.


What happens if you disconnect the power supply cord to the hard drive?

If you disconnect the power cord to the hard drive, when you turn the computer back on, the hard drive will not be operational. Additionally, if you leave the IDE (or SATA) cable connected when the power cable is disconnected, the system will take longer to POST because it will try to identify the device connected, but it will not be able to. If it is the only hard drive you have in your system, the computer won't boot up because your operating system is on the hard drive.
