If you have successfully used a PATA (regular IDE) cd/dvd writer with a
SATA PCI controller and converter, please tell me which controller and
converter you used. Thank you in advance for all replies.

until he either jumps up in the air to bat at it or zooms around
in a circle until he gets too dizzy to stand up. What is cruel about
it is that I don't do it nearly as much as he wants me to.

No personal experience but under 'Product Features' it says:
- compatible with any Serial ATA controller (ATAPI device may
only work with host controller using Silicon Image chipset)
