I don't know stores that retail it here, but it's available in the US. I got mine free from ABIT, (correct me if I'm wrong) it's not gonna give you any performance boost over IDE.

If you have for example a 133 PATA HDD plugged into the converter, it still operates as the same as its plugged using IDE cables. its just merely a converter. not a booster.

The advantage is, if you have more IDE Drives than your Mobo supports, you could use it to interface your IDE Drive to your sata input..

well said sir

I also don't think it would boost its performance.

converter ra na bro....

hehehe careful with those words. SATA is still an IDE device, its their interface and data transfer rate that they differ.

@dstink: there is a "converter" that your SATA device would be connected to a PATA interface or the other way around. like everybody said, try checking it out at CD-R King or you can get one from TipidPC (Manila).
