I've seen a lot of references to SATA drives going into d900t's, while mine are PATA.
Is there a different connector/wire to use if i wanted to put a SATA drive in, or does it use the same one?

As alienware armando mentioned, their are two different adaptors. They usually go for about $80 online. I just sold my last one for $20. Good luck finding one.

The D900T/D900K can read any IDE or SATA 2.5" drive, just make sure to read this guide I have:

If your looking for a SATA cable try eBAy. Ive changed both of my M7700 to SATA and I can say Ive seen a little bit of improvement in how the system opperates.
