ASUS Preparing for SerialATA. [08/12/2002 11:43 PM]
by Anna Filatova
ASUS has recently announced a new device, which should simplify the shift to SerialATA interface. The device is called P-SATA and is none other but some kind of a converter installed into the regular ATA-slot of the mainboard thus allowing to connect any SerialATA device to it.

At the same time, this converter can be used only with ASUS A7V333, P4T533 and P4B533-E equipped with Promise onboard RAID controller, ASUS claims. No reasons for this converter not to work with any other mainboards haven’t been mentioned. However, it might be the Promise chips that boast some hidden features involved by the specifically adapted controller BIOS.

This way, we have every right to state that the mainboard makers keep preparing a warm welcome for the SerialATA interface in hard disk drives.
