   Howdy! Again Tom,   
      
   I was wrong about seeing IDE on the screen.   
      
   Everything is set for SATA in the BIOS.   
      
   Thanks for getting me to recheck what I wrote earlier.   
      
   When this computer starts up the BIOS settings for the Drives just   
   Flashes on the screen for a brief moment.   
      
   So I made a movie of what I was seeing on the screen and Paused it when   
   I Played it back so I could make out what was written on the screen.   
      
   It doesn't say anything about IDE or even SATA at all.   
   It just says the Model Number of the HDD.   
      
   Thanks Again!
