Hmmm...not so sure about this, pero i read
somewhere that you really don't get any benefits from
an ATA100 or an ATA133 drive, coz the physical
mechanisms of hard drives just can't take advantage of
the higher transfer rates; i.e. the transfer rate is
essentially pegged at the physical speed of the drive
heads, etc. True or false?
