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. 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 ...

5. Industry Standard Architecture - Wikipedia

   In addition to the physical interface channel, ATA goes beyond and far outside the scope of ISA by also specifying a set of physical device registers to be implemented on every ATA (IDE) drive and a full set of protocols and device commands for controlling fixed disk drives using these registers. The ATA device registers are accessed using the ...

6. Disk array controller - Wikipedia

   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.

7. SATA Express - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SATA_Express

   The Serial ATA interface was designed primarily for interfacing with hard disk drives (HDDs), doubling its native speed with each major revision: maximum SATA transfer speeds went from 1.5 Gbit/s in SATA 1.0 (standardized in 2003), through 3 Gbit/s in SATA 2.0 (standardized in 2004), to 6 Gbit/s as provided by SATA 3.0 (standardized in 2009).
