內容大意是serial ata﹙以下我簡稱sata﹚最終的規格以底定，這技術是為了取代原有的並列ata儲存裝置介面，是由sata工作團隊所發展的，這包含了APT、Dell、Intel、IBM、Maxtor、Seagate。sata介面是用來連接內接式的hard disks, DVDs and CD-R/Ws到桌上型、攜帶型電腦、低階伺服器、網路儲存裝置的主機板上，這介面藉著小小的街頭提供了更方便、簡單、快速的連接方式，並提供舊有的並列ata裝置共存的方式。而這些相關產品在商場上與消費者見面的時間約在2002年中以後，先出現的將是sata/1500的規格，它提供單一通道1500Mbits/sec的超高速度，而這技術將免費提供基本的授權給製造廠商，以使推廣更順利！

Serial ATA Final Specification Released Amid Broad Industry Support
Technology Provides Long-Term Solution for Higher Performance, Easier System Design
SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 29, 2001--The next generation of internal storage connectivity is within reach with today's release of the Serial ATA final 1.0 specification. The announcement was made at Intel Developer Forum, Fall 2001 in San Jose, Calif.
The technology is an evolutionary replacement of the parallel ATA physical storage interface, and was developed by the Serial ATA Working Group. Promoter group companies are APT Technologies Inc, Dell Computer Corporation, Intel Corporation, International Business Machines, Maxtor Corporation and Seagate Technology.
The Serial ATA interface will be used to connect such internal storage devices as hard disks, DVDs and CD-R/Ws to the motherboard in desktop and mobile PCs, value servers and network storage. Scalable performance (starting at 1.5 gigabits per second) and 100 percent software compatible with current operating systems, the technology will provide a storage interface that meets the needs of computers for the next decade.
Serial ATA has other benefits over its parallel predecessor. The low pin count of Serial ATA will enable computer manufacturers to design systems with cables that are simpler to route and install, improving thermal designs and facilitating smaller form factor systems. It also enables easier, more flexible motherboard routing and the use of smaller connectors than is possible with the existing parallel ATA technology.
Broad development of fully compliant products is already in progress, with the first Serial ATA/1500 storage solutions expected in the marketplace in the first half of 2002, according to Jason Ziller, Serial ATA Working Group chairman and Intel technology initiatives manager. The specification is licensed to the industry on a royalty-free basis.
The Serial ATA Working Group is now 74 members strong, representing leaders in the silicon design, cable/connector, storage and systems industries. More information about the Serial ATA Working Group is available at www.serialata.org.
