What is SATA (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment)?

This content has been automatically translated from Ukrainian.
SATA (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment) mode is one of the operating modes for connecting devices to a computer through the SATA interface. SATA is a data transfer standard between a hard disk drive array (HDD) or solid-state drive (SSD) devices and a computer motherboard.
SATA uses serial data transmission, which allows information to be transmitted one bit at a time. The SATA mode of operation determines the data transfer speed and functionality of the connected device.
The most common SATA modes include:
  1. SATA 1.5 Gbps: This is the first version of SATA to transmit data at 1.5 gigabits per second (Gbps). It was introduced in 2003.
  2. SATA 3 Gbps: This version of SATA transmits data at 3 gigabits per second (Gbps) and was released in 2004. It is popular among older computers and devices.
  3. SATA 6 Gbps: This is the most common SATA mode that supports a data transfer rate of 6 gigabits per second (Gbps). It was introduced in 2009 and provides fast data transmission for modern HDDs and SSDs.
SATA mode can be configured in BIOS or UEFI on the computer's motherboard. Depending on the connected device and support of the motherboard, you can choose the appropriate SATA mode to ensure optimal data transfer speed between devices and the computer.
