Just bought a Seagate Sata HDD and I am using it on an ASRock 
Motherboard with Sata on board. Works perfectly with suse 9.0.
Sata is also faster than IDE. Good linux support under 2.6.x kernel. 2.4 
on the other hand I don't know. I read recently that they have been 
working on 2.4 sata support for linux, however I don't know if its in 
the kernel tree or not. Probably is by now though.
