ATA and SATA question
« on: January 29, 2006, 09:40:06 AM »
Is it possible to run them together in the same system?
My motherbaord supports both and has connectors for each.

Could I have a SATA plugged in and an ATA and run normally?

Would thier be limitations?

Or is this not even possible.

Thanks.

Yes, you can mix and match. If you were getting new drives it would make sense to get both SATA, but you can recycle an older IDE drive this way.
