However, the data transfer of the SATA subsystem will be limited to that of the slowest device.
gov While the cables for all three revisions appear to be similar and will physically fit into the connectors on all SATA drives and controllers, the higher data transfer rate of SATA 6 Gbps requires higher quality materials and closer tolerances than the previous two revisions required. Each end of this internal cable features a straight connector with an attached locking latch, to ensure that your connections do not come loose due to movement or vibration.0 allows for data transfer speeds of up to 6 Gbps.5 Gbps controller, the drive will be limited to a transfer rate of 1.
