What cables should i put in this ssd
What cables should i put in this ssd
looks like you need an 8 pin ssc cable
See on it where it says serial Ata?
That mean you need ide cables.
I have already connecte the blue cable(sata1) but i dont know if a have to connect the red and the green cables or just one of them
Red is sata power
Blue is sata data
Green is molex power
Between them are jumpers.
Just connect red and blue
what the fuck, are you me?
I just finished formatting that exact same drive an hour ago
Ok thanks
(1) that's not an ssd
(2) ide cables
Looks like you need an 8-pin cable per the diagram on the front. You can probably chop a 40-pin IDE cable down to 8 pins/wires if you're careful.
Nice paperweight. We litterally have 50 of these collecting dust in a storeroom at my workplace. Small fucking world
...
>(1) that's not an ssd
Correct.
>(2) ide cables
Incorrect. See
Either one is fine, just not both at the same time
The green is also power(molex). The blue is power, you need blue and red.
Also this is seriously the sate Sup Forums has came to? the fuck
blue is data for SATA (serial ATA)
red is power for SATA
green is molex for older PATA (parallel ATA)
you only need ONE of the power ones
they put two because at the time very few power supplies had SATA power cables. you can use either one because the power is the same on either cable. SATA power cables are easier to manage because they fit better (molex is a bit of a pain to plug and unplug, especially after several times)
25 pin parallel to butthole adapter
I really hate these WD ones.
800JD is god-tier though.
Oh, It's the SATA one, not The IDE.
I fuckin' hate the IDE ones.
who doesnt hate ide right now? it's the parallel port of storage
The 800BB was really good as well.
Try to fit one of these on a (fat) Playstation 2...

post explained it already but here's a visual
not an SSD
all correct
I'll append and state that SATA power supports hot plugging (your motherboard has to support it too!), molex doesn't. pic related (read the underlined red portion)
Why does it have both though? First time seeing this.
see the interface was new and not many power supplies had the power SATA cables yet
>not an SSD
80GiB, of course it has to be an SSD, who would use an 80GiB HDD?
Why does an HDD have jumpers
