It's not the disks that are the problem -- it's the SATA adapter, which is probably integrated into your motherbord, but might be provided by an add-in card (although you'd probably know if this was the case). If you can tell us more about your computer, that would help. If you know a motherboard make and model, that would be better. Nearly all SATA adapters are supported by the latest Fedora (6), but it sometimes takes a while for brand new chipsets to get stable support in the Linux kernel and for a Fedora install image to be built. (Usually, you only get install images with a Fedora release). So new chipsets may not be supported in earlier Fedora releases. (There again, I understand that AHCI is a nice, open, standard specification for SATA adapters, and a new AHCI-compliant chipset will probably Just Work.) But unless you have a *really* *pressing* need to install a previous version of Fedora, I'd highly recommend going for FC6 anyway. Support for a particular Fedora install doesn't last that long.
