I came across a post before, but cannot seem to locate it through search. I am curious to know if installing a SATA hdd makes a difference or not.

SATA drives are faster with data read/transfer on a PC, but does this also hold true on XBOX units as well? I cannot remember. I currently have a SATA hdd and IDE converter installed and running on my XBOX. I am working on a second XBOX and it has an IDE hdd.

I am going to be selling one of them. I just need to know if SATA really makes a difference or not.

My guess is not. Can anyone confirm?

The SATA drive will run just as fast as an IDE connection since the SATA speed gets bottle necked down with the SATA to IDE converter.

Thanks wes! I am glad you are an Admin on this forum. Your responses are always timely and informative.

PS - Remember the issue I was having with loading new XBMC versions on my other XBOX? Seems on my new XBOX it loaded fine. Now I'll just port all my data to my new XBOX and reformat the original.

To this day it still boggles me! I am just glad I don't have to worry about it now that am working on my secondary unit (soon to be my primary)
