The power consumption for SATA devices typically ranges from about 2 to 6 watts for hard drives and around 1 to 3 watts for solid-state drives (SSDs). However, this can vary based on the specific model, usage, and load conditions. Overall, SATA devices are designed to be energy-efficient, making them suitable for a variety of applications in computing environments.
Is to supply additional power for PCIe video cards Original answer SATA data cables. To provide additional wattage for PCIe video cards
Yes, SATA II (SATA 3 Gb/s) devices are backward compatible with SATA I (SATA 1.5 Gb/s) interfaces. This means that you can connect a SATA II hard drive or SSD to a SATA I motherboard, but the drive will operate at the lower SATA I speed. However, if you connect a SATA I drive to a SATA II interface, it will run at the SATA I speed as well.
It wouldn't be a SATA motherboard if you couldn't connect SATA drives to it.
The Sata II is has a transfer speed that is two times as fast as the original Sata. The Sata has a communication speed of 1.5 Gbit/s while the Sata II is 3.0 Gbit/s.
SATA 3 is backwards compatible, it means you connect it the same way as SATA 1.
