Check to see if JMicron's sata(drive) to ide(host) is suitable to your
need. They also come with bi-directional switch to select which end goes to
the mainboard. ypu can connect a big ssd or a sata to M2 adapter. But be
aware they have two problems:
- they need +5V power supply, either from the fdd connector or from USB;
- they do not get along with Sun Ultrasparc systems: the sata hdd is
always read-only.
You can also get a pci sata controller.

You may want to use PATA
disk-on-module.
There's also a crap-ton of SATA<->PATA adapters that I've used to good
effect everywhere except in space constrained situations (think laptop).
