Default What is Serial ATA?

I'm completely lost on the subject. I have an A7N8X-E Deluxe and there is a great deal on a Maxtor 300 GB Serial ATA/150 Hard Drive for only $89.99 at Fry's.

Can somebody briefly describe the installation and setup differences between SATA and IDE drives? Is there a noticeable difference in performance between the two? And can I run both an IDE and a SATA drive simultaneously?
