I like SATA, because when I want to format my disc it take about one minute to formate my HDD, but I have many problem with SATA, when I want to instal WinXP I didn`t know that I have to instal hard drives, I didn`t know what is the problem, I wrote a letter to Samsung HDD manufacturer it take a time when I understood that I need hard drives, then I started to search it, than I found it in my Motherboard CD and I found another problem, which files I need after long way I have solved my problems and now I am happy with SATA Know I have a little problem, I have only few friends how has SATA connect in motherboard, so I can`t throw my HDD to my pocket and got to copy big transfer information, but someone invented CD-RW or DVD-RW we have to use it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
