What exactly is an ATA drive, anyway?
I know SCSI and IDE; is ATA related to one or the other, or is it an entirely
seperate type of drive?
Thanks,
Child-like (in HD knowledge) Craig W.
In short ATA is a modern form of IDE, with SCSI lice features, like DMA.
For more teknical info look at http://www.maxtor.com/en/index.htm as an exampel an read the white papers about their products.
FWIW D.L.
