Hi,

I have an old Dell Dimension 2350 that I put Kubuntu on and bought a WD Caviar Blue to store videos. I didn't realize that the Dell had no SATA connectors so I need to get a SATA controller and power adapter to connect it and would appreciate any recommendations.

Would getting a SATA2 card make the access to the videos faster ?

thanks
xav,

Dear xav,

I recently purchased a 500 GB SATA hard drive for my machine at work, and didn't realize until I opened this Dell Dimension 2350 that the hard drive is an ATA drive. Since your post seems to offer me some hope, I was wondering if you ever got an answer to your question someplace else? What, if anything, did you do to solve your very similar problem to mine? Thanks so very much in anticipation of your response.
