I have a old laptop and I want to upgrade it to SATA, but when I got my old HDD I didn't know what connection is it. HDD name is MK4025GAS. If you know what is it I will be happy to know.

Any laptop old enough to have that PATA connection is too old to really benefit from an SSD, even if you could plug it in.

Yes, an SSD is 'faster'. But the rest of the laptop is still terribly slow.

2.5"pata connector.
