There was some talk about Mandrake (even in 2.4 kernels) already supporting
SATA and about 2.6 supporting SATA. Anybody has experience with this? Is all
SATA supported or only some chipsets?
I also wonder whether an AMD64 is worthwhile. Does it really give a serious
performance increase for home/office computing (the most demanding tasks will
be home editing video captured with a firewire device and managing a growing
mp3 collection of lectures I give, with therefore presumably some editing of
those streams).
Or do you, dear list members, think this is overkill since I am not playing
Quake and not using the machine as an application server?
