IDE / PATA Hard Drives
Parallel ATA disappeared from new hardware nearly two decades ago, but the equipment that depends on it did not. IDE/PATA drives are still the correct replacement part for CNC machines, laboratory instruments, point-of-sale terminals, arcade and gaming boards, vintage Macs and PCs, and thousands of embedded controllers still in daily service.
