The only thing I don't enjoy about sata is that you can't connect multiple drives up with the same cable. But that's the point, as it is serial, after all. And this is more than made up for by a) lots of the plugs onboard, b) external sata ability and c) the bandwidth they can achieve(3GB/s!)

My two cents worth.

Its not a bendable cable as you would think
EIDE Cables are wayyy more flexable, but the wideness of it has 
restrictions...

SATA cables are good thing, kinda sad that most of them are so long...
