I am upgrading from a P-III based system. I recently had to replace a
HDD that died with a Western Digital 80g, IDE that I am running right
now off an ATA 115 card.
I've noticed a number of Mobos and Upgrade kits that have features I
want are SATA based. The thing is that my budget is somewhat limited.
If I go with one of these boards, I'll have to go with a SATA based HDD.
What I am wondering, moving from a P-III 450 system...will I get enough
bang for my buck with an upgrade that is IDE based? Will there be much
of a bottleneck, if I opt for a P4 SATA board and use an IDE/SATA card
to run the HDD I currently have?
