hello guys....
lately i hear weird things...from my neighbour...who just bought a new pc, hes having problems most of the time and yesterday i heard another weirdo story from him...
he told me his hard drive is very fast
(just a normal maxtor 250gb)
and he was having problems with the drive because the SATA cable used wasnt the correct one...and his super fast drive wasnt working properly.
I didnt keep up with all the new pc hardware in the last 2 years...but that sounds weird to me.
is there a sata 2 cable?
2 years ago sata drives(i am using one too) came with the normal sata cable.
how about sata 2 drives? do they need a new cable? like the old udma 33 and udma 66 ribbon cables? or is he talking out of his back?
he also told me they come with a metal thingy on their sides...which i believe is a locking clip or something?
the sata cables are L shaped on their sides(the connector) in order to be installed properly....the only difference with the new cables for (ultra speed disks ) is just the locking clip?
The guy is being a pain in the .... nearly every day telling me about his ultra fast pc (just a core duo 1.86ghz NOT 1066fsb) etc etc and i am just fed up with all his stories...time to get mean
