Hi, im just trying to get qet a better understanding of what is out there now.
I was reading a review of the P5B Deluxe WiFi-AP Edition mobo and they mention that the ICH8 controller does not have PATA support. Can anyone explain what PATA is?? I know SATA is the best but what is PATA because i cant find anything online that helps much. Is it just a regular IDE thing or different. And if it is just IDE why would they say it dont have PATA support when the mobo still has an ide port anyway. Thanks
