This is slightly off-topic but you can easily use older ide drives with sata connectors via a cheap adapter. I even went as cheap as to get a few Chinese ones off ebay for a couple bucks each. Even those worked well. New harddrives in the 500GB-1.5GB are pretty cheap these days, even some in the 2GB range... But an ide->sata adapter is even cheaper.
