    66 What Gains and Benefits will this bring?::
    7   SATA has replaced ATA(PI) almost completely. HelenOS cannot rely on an obsolete disk interface standard that is only supported in the controllers in legacy emulation mode and can go away any time. A native SATA AHCI driver will bring HelenOS up to date with current disk interface standards and will allow us to make use of the better that SATA brings (I/O scheduling, larger capacities).
