    I'm kinda confused on what the operational differences are between SATA and e-SATA. Is e-SATA a SATA connection on the outside of the laptop/desktop, or is a connection directly to the motherboard?

    I other words, if I have a external e-SATA drive, does the cable connect to a port on the outside, or does it connect directly to the motherboard?
