Hi,
I have a hard drive case and I need to buy a hard drive but first I need to find out if I need a Parallel ATA (PATA) or Serial ATA (SATA) hard drive...
IS THERE A WAY I CAN FIND OUT????

Check that case first. Read the specs or the manual. If you are familiar w/ the appearance of an IDE connector and a SATA connector, inspect the case. OR have a geek take a look at it first.

no longer a undesirable thought in any respect. maximum extra moderen motherboards help SATA alongside with EIDE and that they are able to co-exist in simple terms fantastic. The SATA is quicker however. the two considered one of my desktops are at the instant utilising the two serial (SATA) and parallel (EIDE) or (PATA) drives.
