Re: What have you just bought?
A PATA (IDE) to dual SATA adapter board. The PCI card that I tried doesn't do DMA* whereas this arrangement will. That's vital to be able to play large (>10 GByte) HD video files without stuttering using the media server.
Now works a treat. 
*Direct Memory Access: A method of data transfer that bypasses the CPU and is fast.
