2. Parallel ATA - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_ATA

   Parallel ATA cables transfer data 16 bits at a time. The traditional cable uses 40-pin female insulation displacement connectors (IDC) attached to a 40- or 80-conductor ribbon cable. Each cable has two or three connectors, one of which plugs into a host adapter interfacing with the rest of the computer system. The remaining connector(s) plug ...

   A data cable (top) and control cable (below) connecting a controller card and an ST-506 type HDD. Power cable not shown. The earliest hard disk drive (HDD) interfaces were bit serial data interfaces that connected an HDD to a controller with two cables, one for control and one for data.

4. Molex connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molex_connector

   The desktop computer hard-drive connector (AMP Mate-n-Lok 1-480424-0 power connector) is standard on all 5.25-inch floppy drives, 3.5-inch PATA and non-SCA SCSI disk drives; however, newer SATA disk drives employ a more advanced interconnection with 15 contacts. These advanced connection systems were first developed by Molex and other connector ...

5. 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 ...

6. Parallel communication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_communication

   The decreasing cost and better performance of integrated circuits has led to serial links being used in favor of parallel links; for example, IEEE 1284 printer ports vs. USB, Parallel ATA vs. Serial ATA, and FireWire or Thunderbolt are now the most common connectors for transferring data from audiovisual (AV) devices such as digital cameras or ...

7. SCSI connector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCSI_connector

   A SCSI connector (/ ˈ s k ʌ z i / SKUZ-ee) is used to connect computer parts that communicate with each other via the SCSI standard. Generally, two connectors, designated male and female, plug together to form a connection which allows two components, such as a computer and a disk drive, to communicate with each other.
