I bought an adapter board that is supposed to allow a SATA
drive to be connected to a PATA inteface. There is not a jumper
for setting the drive to  master or slave or cable select.   I have never
examined a SATA drive, so I do not know if  there needs to be one.
Do SATA drives have a drive select jumper?
