What is the difference between SATA & PATA?
SATA (Serial ATA) and PATA (Parallel ATA) are interfaces primarily used to link to mass storage components e.g. hard drives and optical drives. SATA is the more recent interface and the successor of PATA and commonly used in all computers. The key advantages of the SATA interface include; increased data transfer rate, easy cable management and better cable length, increased airflow due to its smaller size and lastly, support more drives.
