Does anyone have any experience mixing ATA and SATA hard drives in the same machine? My motherboard has connectors for both, but so far I've only installed ATA drives. I'm in the market for a new drive, and I'm considering adding a SATA.

Is one of those Linux or FreeBSD?
It's Ubuntu. Sure, it's super-friendly Linux, but it's still Linux, right?
