SATA (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment) is the standard interface used in desktop computers to connect optical drives and hard disk drives to the computer. There are different versions of SATA (eg. l, ll and lll). As you would expect SATA lll is the latest and fastest technology. So, for hard drives in desktop computers, 3.5" is the usual size and SATA lll is the recommended format.

SATA Hard Drives
What exactly is a SATA hard drive? A SATA hard drive is a mass storage device which is rewritable. It has impressive transmission speeds, excellent storage capacities and outstanding support by virtually all operating systems and motherboards. In simple terms, SATA is how pretty much everything storage-related connects to the motherboard.
A wide choice of 3.5" SATA drives at Ebuyer
At Ebuyer we stock SATA drives from manufacturers such as Western Digital, Seagate and Toshiba. Most are internal drives but we also carry a range of external SATA drives. The internal drives connect directly to the motherboard whilst external SATA drives connect via the eSATA port that is found on many desktop PCs.
Choosing Your Drive
Each drive has its own specifications. For example a 500GB 7200RPM 3.5" SATA HDD has a storage capacity of 500GB, a rotation speed of 7200RPM, its form factor (size) is 3.5" which is the desktop standard, SATA is the connection and HDD signifies Hard Disk Drive. Most of us will choose a hard drive based on its capacity but don't ignore the rotation speed as this impacts on data transfer speeds. Basically the higher the rotation speed the better.
