COMPUTER FUNDAMENTALS

Detailed explanation-1: -Types of Interfaces. These names come from the way they connect to the computer. So, there are PATA hard drives, SATA hard drives, SCSI hard drives, and NVMe drives.

Detailed explanation-2: -PCIe vs SATA PCIe uses four lanes for storage devices, resulting in data exchange that is four times faster than a SATA connection, which only has one lane. This provides faster read and write speeds, as seen in the table below—meaning faster gameplay, smoother multitasking and a more responsive computer.

Detailed explanation-3: -SATA III (revision 3. x) interface, formally known as SATA 6Gb/s, is a third generation SATA interface running at 6.0Gb/s. The bandwidth throughput, which is supported by the interface, is up to 600MB/s. This interface is backwards compatible with SATA 3 Gb/s interface.

Detailed explanation-4: -From an overall point of view, hard disk interfaces are divided into five types: parallel ATA (PATA, also called IDE or EIDE), SATA, SCSI, Fibre Channel, and SAS.
