Only thing I can think of thats negative against ATA is that newer good mobos are mostly SATA for HD but do have one ATA channel for DVD drives. It's not good to share your HD with a DVD so your probably better off with SATA in the long run if your going to do a significant upgrade you want to last.
HD are so cheap now it isn't funny. $90 for 500mb $180 for 1TB hard drives. If I didn't need a DVD to install a couple of programs, I'd Just get a couple of big HD's.
