Do you mean something like 
this?http://www.amazon.com/HDE-SATA-Drive-Interface-Adapter/dp/B002Y2NI4M/ref=pd_sim_147_3?ie=UTF8&refRID=199TBF0PPZSAHR4XHNZW&dpID=41y1NmgtUFL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_

I did not think of going in that direction -- that could work! Then I could put 
the two ATA/IDE drives now in the Sawtooth into my external Firewire enclosures 
and have both bootable computers in one G4 until I repair or more likely 
replace the G5.
Thanks, glen

Hi Glen,

There are cheap adaptors available which fit between the ATA-cable and the 
SATA-connector on the drive. I have two big and fast SATA drives in my MDD 
using those adaptors (price was 8 € on the net), the speed is awesome compared 
to my other internal two ATA-drives. Plus I have all my PCI-slots available for 
other cards.

Good luck, Jörg.
