Hi,
I am soon to order the parts for the PC I am intending to build but have got stuck on this one area.
Are there any inherent advantages to using a sata optical drive over an IDE one?
I know that IDE cables are a lot wider and can impede airflow if badly managed but is there that much of an impact?
Essentially I am asking if in people's opinion it is worth paying extra for a sata drive over an IDE one?
Cheers, thanks in advance
