I can't 100% confirm the speed, but I'm pretty sure that on newer architecture (at least PentiumII or III and higher) where PCI is involved, both IDE interfaces are part of the PCI system. However, your drives have to be able to talk at the full bus speed in order to take advantage of the full bus speed...and not all older drives can. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
