I obtained the following from http://ata-atapi.com/hist.htm#T10
"ATA/ATAPI-6 is ANSI NCITS project number 1410.
In early 2001 ATA/ATAPI-6 is about to be completed. ATA/ATAPI-6 include another even faster Ultra DMA mode, Ultra DMA 100. It also includes a method of increasing the number of LBA bits from 28 to 48 and increasing the Sector Count from 8 bits to 16 bits.
Watch this space for more ATA/ATAPI-6 information in the future."
