SATA data cable - pin query
Hi,
Further to the issues I have been having with a broken SATA data connector (which still works after being wedged on!) I was wondering about the pin arrangement on the connector. I note there are 2 transmit and 2 receive pins with 3 ground pins... My question is - what if one or more of the ground pins were not connected, would the drive still work and if so is it dangerous? i.e. must ALL 7 pins be connected before the drive will work/be seen by XP? thanks for your help  Gav
