Out of the 4 signals, 3 are driven by the HBA and 1 is driven by the backplane. Typically, the HBA is a storage controller located inside a server, desktop, rack or workstation computer that interfaces with Hard disk drives (HDDs) to store and retrieve data. 2 8 1 7 Pin No. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Definition DATAIN No Pin DATAOUT GND GND LOAD NC CLOCK SSATA_SGP SATA_SGP - 27 - Hardware Installation
