SATA Debian support

[Paulo Silva <pjs@bragatel.pt>]

Hi all,

I'm going to buy a new computer and I was wondering if there is any
support in the kernel for the new SATA controllers. I'm thinking in
acquiring an Asus P4P8X motherboard with an Intel ICH5 SATA Chipset.
Anyone has experience with this kind of hardware? Does the SATA
technology really turns disk access faster?

Thanks
