Hi list, >From Soekris Wiki: net5501 supports PATA or SATA (this is connected by a bridge to PATA; you can't use both ports and a CF; it is possible to use one PATA and one SATA drive together with a workaround).
Uhmm.. So if I connect a SATA harddrive I get something like this?: SataHD -> SATA port > SATA2PATA-bridge > Soekris-device ..right? Does this mean I won't get better preformance when I use SATA instead of PATA? So my question: Should I buy a PATA or a SATA harddrive? I think SATA is a bit more expensive. I want +/- 160GB space, it should be durable and 24/7 on. (Do 'PATA 7200 rpm hard drives' actually exist?)
