The interface was carefully designed so that any drive which is connected using 40-pin/40-wire cables is limited to 33 MB/sec (16.67 MB/sec on Beiges) and any drive which is connected using 40-pin/80-wire cables is limited to 133 MB/sec, with 66, 100 or 133 being possibilities, depending upon the lowest performance interface (host or drive). -- -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
