A SATA hard drive is a hard drive that connects to the computer through the SATA bus. SATA is an interface released in 2004 to replace older IDE / PATA interfaces.
Also called a Serial ATA, the SATA hard drive helps in the process of transferring data from an external hard drive to the bus in the computer. The bus is a component that transfers information from one part of the computer system to another.
No. IDE Hard Drive cannot be replaced with a Sata Hard Drive because the connectors are different. example. if you have sata hard drive installed on your machine. and you purchase IDE Hard drive. you won't be able to install the IDE hard drive where the Sata hard drive was because the IDE connectors are a different shape and size towards the Sata hard drive connectors.
A serial hard drive is the same as a SATA hard drive. SATA is Serial ATA, and PATA is Parallel ATA.
Yes it is a sata drive. It is a internal hard.
a solid state drive is faster than an sata drive...
Someone can purchase a SATA hard drive from a number of companies such as Amazon. Amazon has a large selection of SATA hard drives from a number of manufacturers.
sata
This partica\ular hardrive is a SATA model.
You cannot do that. SATA and IDE are not compatible. What you can do is to buy special expension card which can work with SATA drives. For instance, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815124022
a SATA hard drive can be connected to and controlled by a SAS hard drive controller
Sata of course. It is much much better/faster/economical.
You should check the exact type of your SATA drives, and what cables they require, on their website: SATA drives come as SATA-1 and SATA-2, and also as E-SATA [external SATA], I believe. The cables may be different, check it out on Wiki or your mfrs site. cheers!
A sata cable connects a motherboard to a Sata hard drive. Modern power supplies have special chords made to power Sata hard drives where as old ones do not. Older computers have Eide cables to connect the motherboard to the hard drive.
