Petz, <tell that to the millions of Intel customers who believed the spec sheet for their motherboards and/or systems, and who paid $10 extra for an ATA133 hard drive instead of an ATA100.> The connection between the north and south bridges is a 266 MB/sec HubLink interface, not PCI. The only ATA hard drives affected are those attached to an external PCI ATA controller, not the integrated ATA controller on the south bridge. <Actually, legally, Intel has to tell them.> They do. It's called the Spec Update. Tenchusatsu
