Thanks. Looks like a price I could stand to just try one ... after  
picking a good Seagate SATA (avoiding the ones with firmware issues).

Beginning to wonder it it might be to risky ...

I would be using it for a main drive off my QS Dual 1GHz ATA66 ... it  
says it is for an ATA100/133 channel ... like the ones off my Sonnet  
Tempo ATA/100 and Trio ATA133 PCI Cards.

So it would not work off the mobo ATA channel ... but would most  
likely work off the Sonnet ATA/IDE PCI cards?
