Since newer Motherboards do NOT have an IDE port anymore and all DVD+-R/DL Writers are all SATA actually,i was wondering something
I actually have Windows XP SP3 (a modified XP with less shit and more speed..) and an IDE LG Drive along with a SATA HDD..also my MB has free SATA ports left (like...only 1 is used (HDD) and is NOT in RAID...i think)
The question is
If i remove my IDE DVD Writer and put in a SATA DVD Writer (i found LG and ASUS ones),do i need to format Windows XP to make em detected or something?...is there any "Jumper" to move from the SATA Drive or now it's like...automatic? (Noob,i know)
Anything else i should know before buying a SATA DVD Writer?
Thanks in advance (No trolling plz)
