Petz,

Somehow, it seems that the SATA implementations I have seen so far look kind of like they were attached to the system with duct tape and rubber bands, not at all well integrated into BIOS. If the mobo has a separate chip, you generally need to specify "Other" device as a primary boot device, but even when it is integrated in the southbridge, such as in VIA K8 mobos, it is less than straigt forward.

I hope the boards based on nForce 3 250 will have SATA better integrated, taking over the center stage from ATA.

BTW, are there now or are there going to be in the future SATA based CD-ROM and DVD drives?

Joe
