Motherboard Using SATA

[jbzeigler]

I'm considering the purchase of a new PC since Black Friday is right around the corner. However, I currently have a Dell PC with two IDE HDDs. If I were to get a new PC that has a SATA HDD, does it still have the connections for an IDE device? e.g. HDD, DVD-ROM, etc.

totally depends on the pc mate.
Most motherboards DO have sata and pata (IDE) controllers, but seom don't. So make sure you get ones that does.....simple as that really.

Ok. I'm assuming that it would be listed in their documentation somewhere then. Good deal. Thanks.
