I must be reading something wrong.

Copying something from the IDE to the SATA and vice versa, would be much slower than if you had SATA to SATA.
same as if you saved a file to the IDE and timed it, and compared to the SATA speed. You'd find it's overall slower.
I also find that when my OS does a drive "explore" all drives, when the IDE is attached it's much slower than when it is not.
