These define the technologies used to connect the
hard drive to your computer. Since they are each
physically different, only one type can be used in a
laptop. If your laptop supports SATA, only SATA
drives will work. PATA drives are the most commonly
used and SATA drives are found on newer models.
Micro ATA drives are small form factor drives that are
used on some ultra-portable laptops. Not sure which
one your laptop has? Feel free to contact us.
