The biggest difference with this new model is its new SATA interface. However, don't expect a significantly higher level of performance with this drive over an IDE model. The biggest impact in performance was certainly the CPU usage. They are, by far, the lowest I've ever seen. This was expected though because an SATAI drive can indeed provide low CPU Usage over IDE. This was apparent is all read tests performed with this drive. Is it worth it? Honestly, the answer is no. For the most part, you'll get just as good performance with one of their older IDE models. Other than CPU usage, the other real benefit is that smaller cable.Miguel also has some interesting insights about burning DVD's under windows Vista.
