So to summarize. The SATA specification was and still is a breakthrough in the field of storage devices. These connectors are designed so that even new models can successfully work on older devices due to the compatibility of SATA 2 and SATA 3. Very soon, mSATA will be on a par with its older brothers, which will completely rework the sphere of computer drives, due to its small size and smaller energy consumption.
