Depends on the how the chipset manufacturer made drivers for the HDD controller. For example, JMicron and Marvell supply SCSI Miniport drivers for their SATA controllers. | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Home built (GeneO industries)/Model 2

Hmmmm...Interesting. Both the drives showing as ATA are on JMicron SATA ports. (both on the mobo, one esata and one sata) You learn something every day! Thanks. | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number home built
