I feel like an idiot asking this... throw caution to the wind... what's the
difference between SATA and UATA 133?

Long story short - I bought a HP (arrived a few hours ago), I want to put
some flavor of Linux on it, was concerned about voiding the warranty if I do
that... so I went with a 40G drive (smallest available) and figured I would
pull it out, stick it on the shelf and replace it with something else
(COSTCO is selling Maxtor 200G Ultra ATA 133s for 135.00). If I have any
hardware issues and need to avail myself of the warranty I'll just swap the
original drive back in. The HP shipped with a SATA.

SATA and UATA "interchangable?"
Was a little overwhelmed looking at the install info on their site this
morning but I'm thinking Debian (I suppose with the orignal drive on the
shelf I can't mess to much up while learning...)
