Is there a advantage of using a SATA DVD/RW Drive instead of a IDE Drive?

Hi:
Not as far as I know. Using a SATA DVD/RW is just becasue you have migrated
to MOB to a new one with SATA. I depend more in the model of DVD that you
are using, than the interface.

Only if you don't have an open IDE connector available.

SATA was designed to supercede ATA (or sometimes referred to as Parallel
ATA) .. has some really fast bus speeds, enhanced raid capability and
platter command queuing....

converter installed in them or similar

How is that an advantage if the CD/DVD cannot read from or write to the
media any faster with either bus system?

Smaller cabling, eliminates the need for some to use IDE all together, helps
with airfow. Etc......
