3 Serial ATA (SATA) Drive Guidelines and Features NOTE: HP only supports the use of SATA hard drives on these models of computer. No Parallel ATA (PATA) drives are supported. SATA Hard Drives Serial ATA Hard Drive Characteristics Number of pins/conductors in data cable Number of pins in power cable Maximum data cable length Data interface voltage differential Drive voltages Jumpers for configuring drive Data transfer rate 7/7 15 39.37 in (100 cm) 400-700 mV 3.3 V, 5 V, 12 V N/A 3.0 Gb/s SATA Hard Drive Cables SATA Data Cable Always use an HP approved SATA 3.0 Gb/s cable as it is fully backwards compatible with the SATA 1.5 Gb/s drives. Current HP desktop products ship with SATA 3.0 Gb/s hard drives. SATA data cables are susceptible to damage if overflexed. Never crease a SATA data cable and never bend it tighter than a 30 mm (1.18 in) radius. The SATA data cable is a thin, 7-pin cable designed to transmit data for only a single drive. 14 Chapter 3 Serial ATA (SATA) Drive Guidelines and Features

SATA Data Cable
Always use an HP approved SATA 3.0 Gb/s cable as it is fully backwards compatible with the SATA
1.5 Gb/s drives.
Current HP desktop products ship with SATA 3.0 Gb/s hard drives.
SATA data cables are susceptible to damage if overflexed. Never crease a SATA data cable and never
bend it tighter than a 30 mm (1.18 in) radius.
The SATA data cable is a thin, 7-pin cable designed to transmit data for only a single drive.
