SATA Driver?

Question

I have no type of 'SCSI / RAID' in my device manager, is this normal with a single SATA ATA/150 hard drive?  Am I running at optimal HDD speed with the standard Ultra ATA drivers installed?  When installing XP Pro I used the SATA floppy but I still do not have anything other than Ultra ATA in my device manager.  I am confused as I cannot seem to find the 'Promise FastTrak' installed.  I can pick the driver but when I reboot it says that it cannot be started.  There are about 6 different ones to choose from and I think I have tried them all.   The 'Promise SATA Controller' is NOT checked (meaning I dont have it?) according to my Dell Resource CD.

System is working as designed.  The Promise controller is only for RAID configurations.  You don't have one.
