We already had a disk interface that was faster, hot swappable, and with smaller cabling. Now we have about three more! For the record, I happen to like it. I like them all, because they're (mostly) all pretty well-designed. What I DO NOT like is IDE, because it sucks. If you've been keeping track, that's SEVEN storage interfaces that have been mentioned in this thread, and I (as if you actually CARE) "hate" precisely ONE of them. But that didn't stop this inexplicable reaction: ...and the knee-jerk labelers will just keep on labeling anything they read here, regardless of whether or not the point being made has gone squarely over their heads, even though it was spelled out in plain English.
