Go to SolutionConnecting A Second SATA Harddrive
Hi all,
I have a Dell Inspiron 620, and I am trying to install a new Seagate 1TB harddrive...
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148840
I am new to SATA, and I need to purchase a second SATA data cable, but I am not sure what to order. The Dell-installed drive uses a blue cable, but does that mean it transfers data at 6 gb per second? Are SATA data cables color-coded? Should I use a red, blue, or black cable, or does my board support 6 gb per second transfer rates?
In addition, my harddrives are installed upside down, and that means I need a left-angle cable from what I can tell.
I can post a service tag if needed (if it's not against forum rules).
Thanks much.
