2. Hard disk drive interface - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive_interface

   Several Parallel ATA hard disk drives. Parallel ATA, originally IDE and then standardized under the name AT Attachment (ATA), with the alias P-ATA or PATA retroactively added upon introduction of the new variant Serial ATA. The original name (circa 1986) reflected the integration of the controller with the hard drive itself.

3. Parallel ATA - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_ATA

   Parallel ATA (PATA), originally AT Attachment, also known as Integrated Drive Electronics (IDE), is a standard interface designed for IBM PC-compatible computers. It was first developed by Western Digital and Compaq in 1986 for compatible hard drives and CD or DVD drives.

4. ST-506/ST-412 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ST-506/ST-412

   The ST-506 and ST-412 (sometimes written ST506 and ST412 [1]) were early hard disk drive products introduced by Seagate in 1980 and 1981 respectively, [1] that later became construed as hard disk drive interfaces: the ST-506 disk interface and the ST-412 disk interface. Introduced in 1980, the ST-506 was the first 5.25 inch HDD.

5. ATAPI - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATAPI

   ATAPI (ATA Packet Interface) is a protocol used with the Parallel ATA (IDE) and Serial ATA standards so that a greater variety of devices can be connected to a computer than with the ATA command set alone. It carries SCSI commands and responses through the ATA interface.

6. SATA - Wikipedia

   A 3.5-inch Serial ATA hard disk drive A 2.5-inch Serial ATA solid-state drive. SATA was announced in 2000 [4] [5] in order to provide several advantages over the earlier PATA interface such as reduced cable size and cost (seven conductors instead of 40 or 80), native hot swapping, faster data transfer through higher signaling rates, and more efficient transfer through an (optional) I/O queuing ...

7. Disk array controller - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_array_controller

   Hence, its protocol is usually ATA (a.k.a. PATA), SATA, SCSI, FC or SAS. The front-end interface communicates with a computer's host adapter (HBA, Host Bus Adapter) and uses: one of ATA, SATA, SCSI, FC; these are popular protocols used by disks, so by using one of them a controller may transparently emulate a disk for a computer.
