    No, ESATA is actually an external SATA II that supports hot-swappable, but SATA cannot be hot-swapped directly, your motherboard can only use SATA hard drives and optical drives without ESATA interface, SATA1 interface can be connected to SATA2 hard disks, but the rate is 1st generation rate.

    It can only be seen if there is an esata excuse on your motherboard.

    Most of them are on the lower end of the motherboard, but some are near the IO output on the rear end of the motherboard.

    If you don't have it, you can't use it.

    No, it depends on whether there is an outside mouth.

    The ESATA interface can be connected to SATA hard disks. ESATA is actually an extension of the industry-standard interface Serial ATA (SATA). Note that the ESATA is only an extension SATA interface that is used to connect to external and not internal SATA devices.

    SATA uses L-shaped plugs to distinguish the direction of the interface, while ESATA uses different thicknesses and grooves at the upper and lower ends of the plug to prevent mis-insertion, and it also supports hot swapping. Although the interface method has been changed, the underlying physical specifications of the ESATA have not changed, and the 7-pin data cable is still used, so it is only necessary to change the interface to achieve compatibility with SATA devices.

    The difference between ESATA and SATA is the difference between desktop hard disk and mobile hard disk, one is built-in, fixed, and one external, portable and removable, so the technical requirements and cost of ESATA will be much higher than SATA.

    The rest is about the same in performance.

    SATA is the interface in the internal hard disk of the host, ESATA is the hard disk outside, E is external is the outside meaning, that is, the external SATA pull, ESATA can be used to connect to the external hard disk. Is it clear enough?

    Yes, it doesn't matter who supplies the power!

    The difference is that the former is a built-in motherboard interface, while the latter is an external removable interface.

    Update 1:I now have 2 u**sata1 ide both cables

    However, as soon as the SATA2 is HDD, it will be used (to the electricity.

    But the computer doesn't recognize it as only HDD).I guess I can't do anything.

    Friend: SATA seems to have a theoretical maximum speed of 150 MB sec; eAta, 600 MB sec; SATA2 is 300 MB sec. Wandering all over the world, wandering the rivers and lakes.

    Friend: A corner of the International Financial Center Please take a look: (1) The news of a certain TV station told me to recognize the facts I watched a program with a small audience of HK 5 billion; After Mr. Zhang XX came out to announce the results, * and Li XX MP only mentioned, is it possible for public television stations with poor performance to continue to accept it for several years?

    2) There are many negative aspects of the global economy, and there are Lehman Brothers' booms, but several stations broadcast finance at the same time; (3) spent hundreds of millions of yuan to start the XX TV Performing Arts Academy, but I couldn't see a significant newcomer; 4) Sunday Special Program 5x Cantonese Feature Films, The above makes me choose Yahoo Knowledge, Gordon Hardware Discussion Forum, Hong Kong Discussion Forum, etc. (in absolutely no particular order). Wandering all over the world, wandering the rivers and lakes.

    Reference: Do not change

    Esata temporarily base on sata2

    So it will be 3gbit s (300mb s)...

    SATA = 1st Generation SATA (full name: Serial ATA).

    The standard name of the HDD connection format.

    Data transfer up to SATA2 = 2nd generation SATA

    Data transfer up to 3GB s (Zhong Duo Zuo D other features.

    However, it is not useful for ordinary users) ESATA = is an external connection to the HDD plug (i.e. similar to a U** plug).

    It's a lot faster, though.

    Up to SATA2 speed I use 50 yuan fruit d u **to sata's cable system has not even reached the hdd of sata2?A: Yes.

    Up to 3GB s

    However, depending on the family, both HDDs are used.

    So don't drive frightened 2009-02-28 21:31:05 Added: A friend: esata is only a sata2 that is an external system. You say that only 600MB s is called SATA 6GB

    There is no related product on the market.

    It is only expected to be launched in Q2 2009. I don't believe I can check the wiki myself. Zhong Yes.

    Friend. You're even mega"bit"(MB) Same as mega"byte"(mb) None of them are clear. 3gb = 3000mb = 300mb

    Reference: Yourself.

    The difference between ESATA and SATA is the difference between desktop hard disk and mobile hard disk, one is internally fixed, and the other is externally portable and removable, so ESATA's technical requirements and cost will be much higher than SATA.

    ESATA is a data interface. When it comes to the interface of external storage devices (such as portable hard drives), everyone will invariably think of IEEE1394. Although the data transfer rate of these two interfaces reaches 480Mbps 400Mbps, they don't really bring out the full potential of devices such as hard drives.

    It depends, but the esata is the fastest.

    If the line of the eSATA is switched from, will the theoretical speed of the eSATA also increase from 3Gbps to 6Gbps?

    The SATA connector is not on the front of the motherboard, facing up, and is connected to the internal storage device.

    There is a theoretical speed of 3Gbps and a theoretical speed of 6Gbps.

    The ESATA connector is on the side of the motherboard, facing outward, exposed through the chassis bezel and connected to external storage devices.

    The speed only reaches 3Gbps, and so far, there is no 6Gbps ESATA interface, and the ESATA port of the hard disk enclosure is also the same.

    SATA's data line is divided into parts, and there is no difference between the external ones, but there is a difference in the internal shielding layer, which affects the speed.

    There is no difference between the data cable of the esata.

    However, the eSATA data cable is not the same as the SATA data cable, and it cannot be mixed, and the eSATA data cable has good plugging and unplugging durability.

    Some sources say that the theoretical rate is faster than the eSATA rate, but if the eSATA can reach 6Gbps, it will be faster. If you have a high-speed SSD (read and write 500MB or more), then the enclosure with the ESATA interface is better.

    External interface: 5Gbps, eSATA is fast.

Listen to your should be a problem with sovereignty, my company has a few motherboards that are also 845gl, at that time it was also automatically restarted as soon as it entered the system, and then I reinstalled the system, but it restarted again when it was halfway through, at that time I suspected that it was a virus attack, and then took the hard disk to other computers to check for viruses, and there was no virus. I changed the memory, even the CPU was changed or the same, I began to suspect that it was the motherboard, looked at the motherboard, and found that there were a few bulges in the capacitors next to the northbridge chip and memory slots, and I replaced those capacitors and reinstalled the system normally. >>>More
