From my experience, copying anything from IDE to IDE, or IDE to SATA has always been slow. IDE purely sucks. Accessing from SATA is not a problem, its the transfer into IDE that's a bitch especially if your processor's slow.
Hmm, probably shouldn't thread jack but hey, why not, I'm looking to do the same thing too. I have a DELL Optiplex and recently my computer has been acting up, I know it's not to do with the software because the machine runs very well. The USB ports arent registering anything. I cant connect any USB device, mouse, keyboard, flash disk, printer!!! Secondly, it cant seem to pick up my SATA drive in the BIOS, it says storage device not found. Yes, I am connecting them properly. Any views on this.........
