What is SATA?
SATA (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment) is a computer bus interface that connects host bus adapters to mass storage devices such as hard disk drives, solid-state drives, and optical drives. SATA replaced the older Parallel ATA (PATA) standard, offering advantages such as faster data transfer rates, thinner and more flexible cables, and native hot swapping.
