Click to See Complete Forum and Search --> : Would I "notice" a difference by getting a ata66 controller for my QuantumKA +BH6? steveakaflash 08-16-1999, 09:04 PM I just got my new 9.1 gig ata66 Quantum KA drive to replace my 4.3 fireball st, and WOW what a difference. Everything seems twice as fast! Now, i'm only at ata33 on my BH6, and i'm just wondering if ata66 is all hype, or would I notice an improvement by going with a ata66 controller card+ the dual wire cables? I dont want to spend to 40 bucks if it's all hype... Steve steveakaflash 08-17-1999, 10:13 AM I'm thinking about the "Promise" ata66 controller... Steve Stan 08-17-1999, 11:50 AM Hi, I don't think that you will notice a difference if you were using the same HD on a UDMA66 controller. If you want to see a real increase a performance, buy yourself a Promise FastTrack RAID controller and another Quantum KA HD (same model, same size). Configure them in a RAID0 array: it is faster than a single U2W HD. That's what I am using for the moment: this is problably the best upgrade I have done for my PC ! Stan SysOpt.com
