OC ATA100?
If you're not living in a cave you probably know about the 8MB WD HDD's. THe problem is that they are only ATA100, and it doesn't seem like Western Digital is gonna start making their HDD's ATA133. SO.......Does anyone know if it's possible, and more specificly, has it been done, to overclock the Harddrive to ATA133 transfer speeds, I know you can force it to accept certain DMA's but will it actually respond to DMA 6, or is it 7

in my experience UberLord is correct. Installing via 4in1's ver. 1.38 added UDMA 6 support for my Maxtor ATA133 hdd. I got a very nice 29% bandwidth increase by doing it! I though man I'll do the same with my other pc with the samsung 7200 ATA 100. Got absolutely zero performance gain. Attribute it to no UDMA 6 support with an ATA 100 drive.
