Wow, we have just recently answered on the larger hard drive (see partition thread)
But SATA...I have never seen it used on older scsi even with adapters.
Please let us know what you learn. We may all run into these issues when the old drives die.

SATA works fine with the adapter on the A2091, A4091 and the UWSCSI of a CSPPC. I've used SATA as 80 GB, 1TB, and a 128 GB SSD. It should work on a fully functional A3000, but I've been bitten so many times with that computer, the D800 diode, WD controller and termination issues that all bets are off, in my opinion. That is, among other reasons, I sold off all my A3000's and blame them for global warming, Ebola, HIV type 2, prion diseases, and rabid MOS users ♥
Good luck, and may God Bless!
