Sata3 Y cable

[Novak.Hvar]

People if this is not for this thread just move it.

I got this crazy idea that stuck in my head.So i need someone to breaks it out.

It is connected with this sata3 to sata2 connection issue.

Imagine this is sata3 Y cable.It will be homemade because it dosnt exist.Is it even possible to made it.



This end with two connection,connect to Sata2 port 1 and 2 on motherboard x58,and this one end to SSD sata3.Then with some kind of software capture entire bandwidth of SSD sata3,somekind of raid to cheat system so that system think that reading from two SSD.Is this theoretically possible.Can i burn something.

Please people who understand the essence of that thing REPLY.

Thanks in advance

Don't think that'll work. You'd be better off just getting a SATA3 PCIe Controller Card, if you need to at all.

To be honest, I doubt you'll see much improvement in your current rig.

The USB cable you've linked a picture of uses one connection of the split end for power only, you only need to use that if one USB port on your computer cannot provide enough power for whatever device is connected at the other end. Not what you think it does.

What you're proposing to do with SATA cables can't be done.

And please can you elaborate.

No that's impossible. The host adapters built in the mobo are transmitting data to storage devices at a maximum rate of 3Gb/s, and there's no way to increase that speed apart from buying a new mobo with Sata3 capabilities

sata3 and usb3 !!!

i think you have got confused

Don't think so. Not likely he'd be using an external SSD, let alone worrying he'd not be getting full speed out of it on the older interface, which seems to be the case here.

@nothingspecial

nothing in the OP suggests anything external

 

[Novak.Hvar]

No not external,i said "Imagine this is sata3 Y cable" ,people this is something that dont exist, bandwidth of one SSD sata 6gb/s split on two sata 3gb/s ports of my x58 motherboard with that cable.I now that this is something that does not exist but I believe that with adequate software its possible.The other story is that it will not be profitable because of development of software and cable.This product(software and cable together) should not cost more than 50$,and its impossible.

This post is for all of those people like me who failed on motherboard manufacturers lies and deception that X58 has Sata3(6gb/s) connection.Rest in peace.

it will not work as it is not just the ports that data travels along bus also a bus

add-on multi-sata PCI cards use hardware (not software) to sort out multiple input streams, then place them in a cache (buffer), and then release them in a FIFO manner to the rest of the mobo's bus lanes.

the data then resides in RAM, and then processed by the CPU etc.

if you want to get down the the nitty-gritty, an OS calls low-level BIOS interrupts to read the storage's cache.

you would have to be a genius to create new hardware PROMS and a new PCB to do this job (i think you are on about)

NB: i am a real-time software engineer. i know (by your posts) that you have not thought this through, or do not have the appropriate tech know-how to create such a device. the Intel ICH10R controller will not allow this
