Serial ATA hard drive confusion by mrbclass
1. The Serial ATA hard drives I've seen on Newegg have the same basic stats (Average Seek Time: 8.5 ms, Buffer: 8MB, Rotational Speed: 7200 RPM) as most other drives, yet people say they are faster... why? 2. Does one need a special motherboard to use them? Exactly how does that work?
