just add drives to the onboard IDE port. Install the OS on SATA drive while using the other drives for file storage

I just saw a small device with my local vendor which cud convert SATA-to PATA and vice versa and costs only 150 bucks. Also comes with 1 yr warranty.
Look for similar things at local stores. Its bundles are a SATA-PATA power cable, PATA-SATA power cable, SATA cables, PATA cables.
I think the cables alone wub be 100 bucks expensive.
