I was wondering about that, since I haven't seen any SATA opticals yet. Good to know; and yes, I would highly doubt that the onboard ATA driver wouldn't be able to handle a master/slave setup on that line...



Another valid point. They are pretty cheap, too (ones that aren't capable of RAID can cost around $30).

why would they bother seeking out a single channel ata controller, i dont think they even make them anymore.
