I'm working with a board with the new promise raid setup that uses 2 SATA and 1 Parallel interfaces but i'm in need of raid0 with 2 parallel devices, so the only option is to find an inexpensive SATA-->PARALLEL adapter, I found one on pricewatch made by 3ware for 55$ but that's sooo expensive

any other options ?

Not sure, but I can't wait for native SATA drives and dedicated bus on mobos, not just some adapter controller.

Itll work fine, you plug the card into the HD, and connect the parrallel HD to a S-ATA connector.

That's right! I was thinking of using 80-wire cable and
didn't see how you could plug it in... Completely
forgot that you can plug it into the hard drive directly :)
