You can only have 1 Sata HDD per Sata connector, however on IDE you can have 2 IDE, 1 set to master the other to Slave or if supported both set to CSS (Cable Select). So you can have 4 Sata HDD and 2 IDE HDD per IDE channel. One thing you need to be aware of is your Power Supply. Make sure it is capable of handling such a load or you will get write errors on the Drives. Hope that helps.

Why does a sata motherboard contain sata connections?
It wouldn't be a SATA motherboard if you couldn't connect SATA drives to it.
Do you have to use sata cables to connect a hdd or ssd to your motherboard?
Most likely, but not necessarily. It all depends on what kind of motherboard you have. Most modern motherboards require SATA cables to connect to storage devices, but there are some that can still use a PATA (also known as IDE) cable for HDDs. Regarding SSDs, most of them connect to motherboards through SATA cables, but there are some that can be connected to the motherboard through a PCIe X4 slot.
When a PC is being assembled what component is connected to the motherboard with a SATA cable?
When assembling a PC, the hard drive or solid-state drive (SSD) is typically connected to the motherboard using a SATA cable. This connection allows for data transfer between the storage device and the motherboard, enabling the system to access and store information. SATA cables are commonly used for both traditional HDDs and modern SSDs, providing a reliable interface for storage solutions.
What does a SATA cable do?
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.
What is the maximum number of drives that can be installed?
the maximum number of drives that can be installed depends upon how many drive bay slots your case has and how many SATA connections your motherboard has.
What technology standard is commonly used today for hard drives to interface with the motherboard in a system?
The most commonly used technology standard for hard drives to interface with the motherboard today is SATA (Serial ATA). SATA provides a high-speed connection for data transfer between the drive and the motherboard, supporting various drive types such as HDDs and SSDs. Another emerging standard is NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express), which is used primarily for SSDs connected via the PCIe interface, offering even faster data transfer rates than SATA.
Drives are connected to the motherboard with ribbon cables or thinner cables?
SATA cables.
Is sata a real connection name?
