Thread: Difference between SATA and SATA-II?

Hello Friends!

Differ whether the HDD SATA and SATA-II connector on to the plume, whether they are compatible connectors for connection.

Thanks in advance.

Hi

Yes. A SATA-II added around the plug to avoid accidental plume.

Maybe a little bit not in the subject ... Lamersky question: is it possible to connect an ATA drive to mattering that supports SATA, well, for example, here is this: M / B Gigabyte GA-8VT880P COMBO Socket775 <VIA PT880Pro> AGP + PCI-E + GbLAN SATA RAID U133 ATX 2DDR-II +2 DDR.

Of course you can, at this mattering unsolder two IDE connector that can connect up to 4 devices. The first channel is holding one or two hard drive, the second - the optical drive.

If the socket is no longer free, you can adapter SATA to Ultra ATA-133 Converter Board (adapter to connect IDE devices to SATA controller).
