   Hard disk drive interface. Hard disk drives are accessed over one of a number of bus types, including parallel ATA (PATA, also called IDE or EIDE; described before the introduction of SATA as ATA), Serial ATA (SATA), SCSI, Serial Attached SCSI (SAS), and Fibre Channel. Bridge circuitry is sometimes used to connect hard disk drives to buses with ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_attached_SCSI

   Yes. In computing, Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) is a point-to-point serial protocol that moves data to and from computer-storage devices such as hard disk drives and tape drives. SAS replaces the older Parallel SCSI (Parallel Small Computer System Interface, usually pronounced "scuzzy" [3][4]) bus technology that first appeared in the mid-1980s.

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. Hot swapping - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_swapping

   Hot swapping is the replacement or addition of components to a computer system without stopping, shutting down, or rebooting the system; [1] hot plugging describes the addition of components only. [2] Components which have such functionality are said to be hot-swappable or hot-pluggable; likewise, components which do not are cold-swappable or ...
