Where do you get the idea that "NCQ is to be part of ATA8" ?
Negotiations between T13 and SATA-IO are far from over.
Please wait until the dust settles before getting notions like this.
Thank You !!!

This message is from the T13 list server.
It seems NCQ is to be part of ATA8, and will need a lot of discussions
to be standardized by T13, but can somebody already bring me the
information:
Is there any hardware requirement for Native Command Queuing support on
SATA 1.0 controller ? or can this be managed by pure firmware ?
(Is it possible to use a NCQ capable drive, labelled SATA I or SATA II
in PC world, with a standard SATA I hardware controller just by adding
firmware)
Thanks
