Product Description
There are a number of advantages to Hitachi SATA over ATA. One of the major issues is reliability. The new Hitachi 3.5" SATA Hard Drives are incorporating new motor technology to spin the harddrive platters which run significantly cooler than their ATA counterparts (and often quieter). Like all components in a computer, heat is an enemy, and by keeping the drives cool, the disks should last longer. Also, SATA uses a point-to-point serial design, allowing each drive full access to the 150MB/s of bandwidth on each cable, which also means no more having to deal with jumpers that can be so problematic on ATA and SCSI drives. The SATA protocol also allows for Hot Plug, allowing drives to be (un)plugged from a running computer without issue.
