SATA, or Serial ATA cables don't really use pins, they're more a slide contact but they are still referred to as pins. There are also 2 types of SATA cables, one for the Power and one for the Data. The data cable is a 7 pin and the power is 15 pin.
Here's a URL to a site that shows the SATA power pinout.

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.
