SATA, ATA ???

Reply by QEIIRepair

Hard Drive Enclosures. The sticker on my hard drive says 'ultra ata', but every enclosure I can find uses 'SATA'. Are these the same thing or can anyone recommend a site where I can buy an 'ultra ATA' enclosure?

are you looking for 2.5" or 3.5" drive enclosures

Serial ata and "ultra ata" are deffinatly not the same Now-a-days we call ATA, or Ultra ATA just PATA or Parallel ATA to distingish the difference between Sata (serial) and PATA (parallel)

I love Macally enclosures for 2.5" drives.. they also make 3.5" enclosures too..

and to make it even more confusing.. some people still call ATA drives - IDE Drives

We have both ATA enclosures and SATA enclosures in stock, FWIW.
