I have a customer who wants to RAID 1 setup on two PATA disks. The only

SATA with a SATA RAID controller?
Good controller or not, they really should move to SATA at this point.
The only reason I would deploy a PATA raid is if it were for a legacy
system where they already have dozens of drives they want to reuse, etc.
The cost savings isn't enough to make it the right choice IMO.
