Sata Ide

Can I replace the current IDE hard disk of my Dell Inspiron 9300 with a SATA hard disk?

I'm a little confused about what the difference between IDE and SATA is. That is, sockets are completely different connections and SATA drive in the laptop would not fit at all?

Yup, that are totally different by the plugs and connections, if you want to use IDE and SATA you need a converter IDE to SATA, no way to use SATA on the IDE channel, because there is nothing to make use of new technologies in the old system to do more to implement the newest.

What are the SATA cables?

Serial ATA, conceptually, known as SATA or S-ATA (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment) is a long and thin 7-pin cable. This is a "cable replacement" for the old standard AT Attachment (ATA). SATA supports almost all ATA and ATAPI devices. These cables are generally incorporated in portable computers, HD DVD, Blu-ray, DVD or CD, desktop motherboards, including the hard disk and other optical drives. These cables are usually 3 feet (1 meter) in length, and are shipped effort to stay out of the way the allocation of maximum airflow inside the box. The cable ensures the fastest and most competent of data transfer and has the ability to remove or add devices while operating (hot swap).

Usually, the Serial ATA is based on serial communication. Data is transmitted via a data path, while a new path is used to transmit acknowledgments. In each of its data paths, data is communicated via the LVDS (Low Voltage Differential Signaling), transmission medium, which require transmits a signal to a thread and is opposite to a second cable to allow the receiver to restore the signal by difference. The control data are, however, on the road identical transmission of data through a specific set of bits that differ.

History and development of devices SATA

Personal computer market, not associated with the hard disk and optical storage devices using the deviation of the IDE and ATA for the past 10. Over time these devices have undergone a radical change in their capabilities. However, since the beginning of 2009 a year, has replaced SATA the legacy of the ATA and is renowned as parallel ATA or PATA each shipping consumer PCs. From now PATA is still important in industrial applications and fixed and depends on storage CompactFlash, but the new storage standard will be based on SATA CFast.

As the product is superior and what are your expectations of your products?

A single SATA cable has a minimum of four wires creates a point-to-point connection between devices different. Its transfer rate begins to 150Mbps or 300 MB / s, compared to 133 MB / s maximum use of previous technology. However, a third generation of SATA is, "SATA 6Gb / s" to be presented this year expects to deliver about twice the speed of SATA previous iteration.

The conventional ie ATA or PATA IDE ports, basically, the parallel data transmission. The only advantage of parallel transmission in serial transmission speed is improved the previous method, taking into account that many bits are sent simultaneously. However, the main disadvantage of respect to noise, because many of the cables must be used, primarily one for each bit to be sent by turn, one wire intrusion occur in another. That is why the ATA-66 and advanced discs drives need an individual, 80-thread. The disparity between the 80-wire cable and standard 40-wire IDE cable is that you have a ground wire between each original cable, providing protection against interference.

How to choose good quality target = "_blank" title = "SATA Cables "> SATA Cables?

• Find a prestige brand, while buying and ensure SATA cables come with a warranty.
• Verify if you have the same connectors on both ends straight.
• If these cables have a latch system.
• Ensure that underpin high-speed data transfer rates up to 1.5 Gbps over distances up to 3 feet.
• Validate if they contain metal tab locks, because a number of SATA ports are very wide.
• You can check if they are compatible with the traditional 4-pin Molex well.
• Check to see whether it is a SATA II cable, which has a transfer speed or 3Gb / s
• If the cable has a 270 ° connector SATA cable unit.
