What else can I help you with?
What type of power connector is used to connect to hard disk drives or optical drives?
molex for IDE devices and sata power connector for SATA devices
An older parallel connection used to connect ATA hard drives and optical devices is?
IDE
What data cable attatches to the optical drive?
A Molex Connector connects to optical drives and hard drives.
What are the 5 examples of output devices?
Monitors, Printers, NIC's, Hard Drives can be both, and optical drives.
What type of power connector do all PATA drives use?
All PATA (Parallel ATA) drives use the Molex 4-pin power connector. This connector provides the necessary power to the drive, supplying +5V and +12V to operate. The Molex connector is typically used for older hard drives and optical drives before the transition to more modern interfaces like SATA.
How do you connect an ata 133 motherboard?
To connect an ATA 133 motherboard, first, ensure that the power supply is disconnected. Then, connect the motherboard to the power supply using the 24-pin main connector and the 4/8-pin CPU power connector. Next, attach the ATA 133 hard drive or optical drives using an ATA (IDE) cable, ensuring the drives are set to the correct master/slave configuration. Finally, connect any necessary peripherals and power on the system to ensure everything is functioning correctly.
Are there hard drives with a fiber optic interface?
Hello, Currently we do not have HDD with fiber optic connector on board, but this can be expected in future. Intel has already developed a chip which uses optical interconnects instead of copper and carbon nano tubes. When this technology is perfected, all the devices even the USB will be optical.
Where does disk storage devices used in?
Disk storage devices are most commonly used in personal computers as a means to enhance memory. The most common are hard disk drives, optical disk drives, and even zip drives.
What is 5 example of output devices?
1.Monitor 2.Printer 3.Hard Drives 4.NIC's 5.Optical Devices
Does pata connect to molex?
PATA (Parallel ATA) and Molex connectors serve different purposes in a computer's architecture. PATA is used for connecting hard drives and optical drives, while Molex connectors are typically used to supply power to these drives. PATA drives can be powered using a Molex connector, but they also require a separate data cable for the PATA interface. Therefore, while they are connected in terms of functionality, they do not directly connect to each other.
What is the purpose of memory?
The purpose of secondary memory is storage of data that is not immediately needed for processing by the CPU. Examples of secondary devices are hard drives and optical drives.
Where can you buy san storage?
San's or Storage Area Networks are the devices used when making optical drives, or storage drives, such as usb flash drives. You can purchase these from companies like New Egg.
