Introduction
editS-ATA or Serial ATA
Is a new technology to replace the P-ATA or parallel ATA.
It has the following advantages:
- less power consumption 500 millivolts in P_ATA 5 volts.
- easy to install, without seating master and slave.
- good air movement replacing ribbon cable to guarantee good air flow.
