I currently have 2x IDE drives in my machine atm. My new mobo supports SATA disks now and i'm wondering if i should replace an IDE drive with a SATA drive.
First off, what are the pluspoints? I know SATA is 150mbps+ and IDE is 100 or 133 but i've also heard SATA drives don't always use their full transfer capacity rate. I won't be planning on running a raid0 array because it seems out of reach for me at the moment. What would you advise?
