I was looking into getting another Hard Drive and I was just wondering what the difference between ATA/100 and ATA/133 was. I can't remember for the life of me. Roll Eyes

Thanks

ATA 100 = 100MBps (relatively..)

ATA 133 = 133MBps.. Wink

ATA 133 is much better! Wink

Of course to benefit from ATA133 your motherboard must support it, otherwise the hd will behave like an ATA100 one.
