'''Serial ATA''' (SATA) ('''Serial Advanced Technology Attachment''') is the current standard of computer connection used to attach memory devices such as [[hard drive]]s or [[Solid-state drive]]s to the [[motherboard]]. It has almost completely replaced [[Integrated Drive Electronics|IDE connections]] (Integrated Drive Electronics), also known as [[Parallel ATA]].
==Advantages==
The first Serial ATA type connection was released in late 2002. Serial ATA/150 offers a net transfer speed of 150 MB/s, as the name suggests. Later, Serial ATA/300 was released, which doubled the transfer speed. As with the previous, the speed is in the title--it has a net transfer speed of 300MB/s. Another small benefit is that Serial ATA cables are narrower that the older [[Parallel ATA]] ribbon cables. This means that SATA cables to not restrict air flow as much as its predecessor.
