If there's artificial intelligence, there's bound to be some artificial stupidity.

At that price I could get one to all my drives without making my accountant angry

and seems like the floopy ones (forgot what you call them )...
but if u try to run a RAID setup... u probably need a seperate PCI card to do the job. Most mobos have 2 SATA headers.Comment

Yes you need to actually give the bridge some power.
The bridge gets power from a small power connector and the HD gets it's power as it always has done - via one of the more "chunky" connectors.
RAID shouldn't be a problem as long as your motherbaord actually has a RAID SATA controller.
My P4G8X-D has a Silicon Image SATA Raid controller so the two headers would allow me to either run RAID 1 or RAID 0.
However as I only have the one WD1200JB HD connected to my SATA controller via an ASUS bridge no RAID for me.
No information as to if that bridge pictured supports ATAPI devices or not.
In fact the only bridge that I do know definitely supports ATAPI devices is a Silicon Image one and I haven't been able to source one of those in the UK yet.Last edited by Paulr; 14 February 2003, 20:04.It cost one penny to cross, or one hundred gold pieces if you had a billygoat.

Anyone knows when we'll see sata integrated into southbridge?

Intel's ICH5 should support this - so probably anywhere up to 6 months before we see it on the shelves, although expect its announcement before then.It cost one penny to cross, or one hundred gold pieces if you had a billygoat.

first: read others posts carefully
second: apparently that sales person doesn't have a clue about what is in that store, because even here in Poland sata drives are available (and we have usually some delay compared with W Europe, States, not to mention Japan when it comes to computer equipment) Comment

It may be interesting to note that a Segate SATA drive reviewed in this months PC Pro magazine (UK) was performing slower than it's PATA equivalent.It cost one penny to cross, or one hundred gold pieces if you had a billygoat.

so if you ordered it back then, you should have it by nowOriginally posted by WyWyWyWy

anyway, there is no advantage to moving to SATA right now. wait for next generation SATA drives that are likely to be faster than the current ATA100-133 drives.Comment
