Hello, list gurus:
I've been hearing about SATA drives, lately. What are they, and can they plug into a regular drive controller, or do they need some special controller card, or what? They must have some advantage over whatever we should call normal drives, so what is it?

Doug, I'm not trying to be rude and your question is a good one, but what does it have to do with Linux support? These type questions are better brought up on the suse-ot@suse.com list, don't you think? Not to pick on just you though, as many seem to be using this list now as an off topic list, rather than what it's intended purpose is. If you or others are not members of the suse-ot@suse.com list, by all means join it! It's not a high traffic list, so you won't be inundated with excess mail, but it will provide you a better place to discuss hardware, etc. Thanks for you help, Lee Good grief! I'm beginning to sound like that Shanahan guy always harping on using Google and taking the time do a bit of research on your own! ;o) Just kidding Patrick. :o)
