what software tells me what my SATA and ATA ports are running at ? I just want to make sure that they are locked properly.
 
If memory serves correctly, locking the PCI bus also locks SATA & PATA buses because they all are controlled by the Southbridge in the mobo.
 
I don't suppose your on a linux system. hdparm -i /dev/hda would tell you. When the computer boots, it should tell you what UDMA mode the drives are operating at.
