No, you need to reformat if you want to change from IDE to SATA mode. If i'm not mistaken...

thanks,

i better keep my current installation, already installed alot of apps, anyway i tested the speed before btw ide and sata, tested in xp (ide) and vista (enable sata in bios for vista) there is really no speed improvement. copy 1gb of files to another partition, actually the speed in xp was slightly faster.
