IDE hard drives explained
Integrated Drive Electronics (IDE) interface in practice refers to the ATA AT Attachment. Any reader with an integrated controller is also called an IDE. Many IDE disks are connected on a bus connector on the motherboard. These drives are simple to install and require fewer cables, because the controller is on the disc itself. ATA probably refers to its readers, but on the other IDE refers to the type of interface connector pin namely 40 in this case. ATA Packet Interface ATAPI or is an extension of the IDE that enable various devices such as CD-ROM to work using the standard IDE. Through this interface package these devices are connected directly to an IDE port, but a device driver is required to take full advantage of the device, for its hard disk was originally supported by the IDE without the help of all drivers.
IDE Hard drives can be found with most computers compatible, each computer has a maximum of four IDE devices. If you intend to buy IDE / ATAPI / floppy disk ATA Hard ensures it is available space for the reader to be connected. IDE drives are used in the early Compaq 386 systems through controllers WD. During the 1980s the IDE ATA has been made as ANSI, so that a common understanding has been created, but the different areas were left open for different manufacturers for their own commands. Later, two disks in the same system was considered a hard time.
Because each drive has its own controller and two drives work usually on the same bus. With the introduction of the ATA, two discs were able to function in a chain, therefore, transmission became the primary master and secondary disk has become the slave. IDE hard drives can be differentiated by a master or slave with a jumper on the disc itself. Although the purchase of a second IDE hard drive you should stick with the same manufacturer to avoid inevitable problems due to compatibility issues involved. For example, if you use the hard drive from Maxtor, choose one second hard drive from the same manufacturer. Sometimes it can happen if you choose another IDE hard disk manufacturer, it will not work on the same cable, but it will separate cables.
Apart from its interface, it is important to compare the transfer rate of IDE disk drive. rate average transfer speeds along the slower your computer for transferring large files. While buying the next IDE hard disk for specifications such as rotations minute (RPM) or 5400 or 7200 rpm. 7200 rpm is ideal today.
Due to its former general interface IDE hard drives carry a price higher as the Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 1TB, this drive supports the incredible space on an IDE interface. There are different manufacturers involved in decision IDE Hard Drives like to mention only a few, Seagate, Hitachi, Western Digital, Iogear Toshiba and they come in different sizes ranging from 250GB to 2TB enormous.
