The Coming of Serial ATA

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the faster-is-better dept.

GrendelT writes "Tom's Hardware has a review of the newest Serial ATA gadgets that are soon to hit the market. With speeds of 150Mb/s, thinner and longer cables, backwards compatibilty with Parallel ATA (what most of us have right now), and the option of being hot-pluggable, it seems the next step in storage technology is upon us."

    I think that this should be a cool tech, of course going to be expensive. Make a cool storage device bus; maybe even some backup devices. I know we could use one on this interface where I work.

    or... you could buy rounded cables. Guarantee it'll cost less :)
