Serial-ATA was created as a replacement for Parallel-ATA (PATA). SATA employs ultra thin, point-to-point connections that avoids the issue of master/slave associated with IDE PATA which lowers latency when striping as RAID-0. SATA bus technology can deliver as much as 300 MB/sec of performance to each drive within a disk drive array drive. The choke point remains the disk drive not the bus. A single SATA drive will sustain about 48 MB/sec. With SATA multiple disk drives can be striped with performance near that of SCSI.
