That depends on your needs.

SATA generally is a better connection, and it allows for a really good RAID setup, IDE is good though and has been working,fairly , well for a number of years now. So again it comes down to what you want it for.

For speed and, say, gaming purposes, SATA on a RAID 0 is probably best, but thats just my opinion.

For a more stable straight forward setup, IDE is probably better for ya.

Hope that helps

and just my opinion, such as it is
