ABSTRACT:
Serial ATA, the successor to parallel ATA for data storage, is a point-to-point connection that delivers full throughput to each storage device by allowing a single controller to manage multiple ports. Serial ATA technology starts at transfer rates of 1.5 Gbit/sec with a roadmap up to 3.0 Gbit/sec and ultimately up to 6.0 Gbit/sec. Serial ATA cables are thinner, simpler to route and install, and provide better airflow for system cooling than parallel ATA cables.
