I just installed a 200GB HD on my Dell system. My old HD runs on SATA0 while my new one runs on SATA1. I also have a SATA2 and SATA3. My question is do 0 and 1 share bandwidth? Would I be better off running one on 0 and the other on 2 or does it even matter?

Sorry if this is a stupid question, this is my first computer with Serial ATA and I'm not fully aware of its specifications. Thx

Yeah, it's not like IDE where one drive is a master and one is a slave. All SATA drives are master.
