Hello,
I just got a Dell 9100. I recently formatted the included Maxtor 160GB SATA HD and installed XP Pro on it. On install I used F6 to install the SATA AHCI drivers and now the Dell bios is set up to use the SATA RAID AHCI auto detect option.
I want to now add my old 250GB WD PATA HD as a 2nd HD. There is an extra molex connector available, but no IDE cable. What are the best recommendations for a SATA to PATA adapter
I only found 2 @ newegg for a decent price (wouldn't want to spend more than ~$15) here:
