That's not %100 correct either. The short answer is actually that DE wanted to make Warframe as it is now back in 2008 but the technology was not available yet so instead Dark Sector was made.

It's been a long time since I played DS but there are little things here and there aside from the glaive and Excalibur that do match up enough to make it so that it's plausable that they could "make" them related like the Technocyte virus, although John Tenno was not immune to the virus like the operators in warframe, he did react differently to it. IIRC in Dark Sector (semi-spoiler here) the ending was left rather vague meaning that you could easily assume that the virus might easily end humanity and iirc there is a moment in one of the warframe quests that mentions something to the effect of "The virus was erradicated years ago, how is it here?" which to me says you could easily say that Orokin's are just humans and as such when it's said that the virus was made to combat the sentients by the Orokin, that you could assume what they are referring to is how Robert Mezner planned to use the virus on the world (government or whoever he was trying to terrorize.) The differences can be explained the same way any story changes through decades and centuries of retelling.

Now I know that DE has said that Warframe is it's own game and is "not" a sequel of Dark Sector so I'm not trying to prove that it is. I am simply saying that there are enough easter eggs spread throughout Warframe that have been carefully placed in such a way that if DE felt so inclined they could make a game that falls between the two that connects them easily. But to say that they are "in no way connected to each other" is not really correct either.
