Step 4: Use a SATA cable with 3 connection plugs. One plug will have 4 large connection pins and the other 2 will be thinner. One limitation of the eSATA port is that it does not supply power through the same port. You require an external power source for your external device. If a PC doesn’t have an external SATA connection port, you can use a SATA to eSATA adapter cable to make the connection work.

Ethernet is the same connection type that your computer uses to connect to its Internet device (cable or DSL modem, etc). Low Profile SATA: Ultra-thin SATA cables with low profile connectors that can be used with longer graphics cards. Three different pins on the connector can work hand-in-hand in parallel to conduct power with varying voltages. SATA III is the third generation interface and has a transfer rate of 6Gb/s with a bandwidth throughput of 600MB/s. Some SATA drives include a small power adapter that plugs in to the normal power cable inside an older PC or Mac so that it will fit the SATA drive.There are different types of SATA cable. If you want to learn about it, you can continue to read this part. The SFF-8639 connector was renamed to a more consumer friendly U.2. This connector is used with some new NVMe SSDs. U.2 utilizes 4 PCIe 3.0 lanes to provide speeds much faster than the SATA interface. Since most motherboards do not have a U.2 connector on them, a M.2 to U.2, or PCIe to U.2 adapter can be used.
