I had a small lot of these types of HDD boards.They all had the connector end familar to the Nonsata hardrive category. I have one with a little twist. See pictures. That is a 80 gold contact connector on the input end. It is a Seagate harddrive board. But it is not NonSata. It is an ASCI board. Yet. The communication method doesn't define the board value. We know that. It's just a convenient general guide to grade a harddrive board value. My pictured board alao shows 2 small double sided edge connectors. Also. J2 and J6 are gold contact. Note. J4 is not gold contact. Tants on board. Typical population of integrated circuits for NonSata HDD. I intend to submit the board as NonSata Hardrive. Any comments would be appreciated.

My evaluations are my own opinion.

I do believe SATA is SATA and ASCI goes as high grade.

Correct, this is a high grade hard disk drive boards. As long as it isn't sata and is from a hdd it is most likely going to get that grade.

Yeah. Got it. Thanks for the reply.

I mostly agree but…. The videos for the two say if it has pins it is high and if it has fingers it is low sata. I have a few just like that one and was confused so I watched both videos just the other day. I can’t tell which one it has. Everything on the board is way better than newer sata stuff. I will go with the two longterm posters that seem very sure they are non sata. Thanks
