1.4.3. eSATA Cables and Connectors

Your LaCie Hard Disk uses the latest in SATA technology, al-
lowing interface (or bus) transfer rates of up to 3 Gbits/s.  SATA 
technology  was  originally  developed  to  serve  as  an  internal 
interface, delivering improved performance to internal connec-
tions. Soon after, eSATA, or external SATA was developed, al-
lowing for the use of shielded cables outside the PC.

eSATA technology was developed to be rugged and durable.  
eSATA connectors do not have the  “L” shaped design of other 
SATA connectors. In addition, the guide features are vertically 
offset and reduced in size to prevent the use of unshielded in-
ternal cables in external applications.

eSATA Benefits

eSATA  interface  can  achieve  up  to  3  Gbits/s    transfer 
rate.

Plug  orientation  –  An  extrusion  on  the  outside  of  the 
connector helps guide and align the connector during 
insertion.

Hot-plug support – eSATA enables adding and remov-
ing  a  drive  without  having  to  power  down  the  system 
or reboot. Utilizing staggered pins to aid insertion, the 
specification ensures device detection and passive and 
active limits to in-rush current.
