Solve : drive speeds?

Answer»

sata 2. speeds are 300 MBps or you can SAY 3000 Mbps
What is the speeds of  sata 1?

I looked on google and just find how they work and wht they are?SATA Revision 1.0 (SATA 1.5 Gbit/s)
SATA Revision 2.0 (SATA 3 Gbit/s)
SATA Revision 3.0 (SATA 6 Gbit/s)Are the SATA III drives on the store shelves yet?

Are there motherboards that support SATA III yet?

JFYI......Did you know, that you can run an IDE 133 drive at SATA I speed if you use an IDE to SATA adapter?

I would have never believed it myself, had I not done it countless times with IDE drives of different sizes and different manufacturers. 

Cheers Mates!

1.  Are the SATA III drives on the store shelves yet?
2.  Are there motherboards that support SATA III yet?
3.  JFYI......Did you know, that you can run an IDE 133 drive at SATA I speed if you use an IDE to SATA adapter?
1.  Yes.  Spec was released 2 years ago.
2.  Yes.
3.  ATA (IDE133) is equivalent to 1.0Gbps, it will not run at a speed faster than that, especially with an adapter, which will slow it down a bit doing the conversion.So  sata 2. transfer speed is  3 Gbps so am I right this is also 300 MBps?
And 3 Gbps is also 3000 Mbps Quote from: NYMPH4 on September 20, 2010, 01:57:04 PM

And 3 Gbps is also 3000 Mbps
G=Giga (1,000,000,000), i.e. one billion or 1000 million
M=Mega (1,000,000), i.e. one million
B=Byte
b=bit
1 Byte = 8 bits
1B (Byte)/sec = 8b (bits)/sec
3Gbps = 3000Mbps = (3000/8) MBps = 375 MBps
