Integrated Drive Electronics (IDE) 


Integrated Drive Electronics (IDE) and Enhanced IDE (EIDE)

 

As mentioned in the configuration chapter, there are several standards for communication and transferring data from one component to another. For example, instructions pass from the hard disk to the processor by way of an IDE (or Advanced Technology Attachment - ATA)  or the Small Computer Systems Interface (SCSI) connection. 

 

 

 

There is quite a discussion about how much better a SCSI connection would be over an EIDE connection. It really depends on the overall configuration of the computer. Either standard has its place.
