In some magazines i've read that Win2K doesn't support UDMA/66 mode, only 33 and you need to activate the 66 in the registry.

But I have a ATA-100 HD as well, and it is really fast (well, not as fast as my scsi drives:D )..so DOES it support 100 and 33 but NOT 66? that would be a bit silly, wouldn't it? or do i need to activeat 100 as well (And make my little drive run like the wind!) ??

Me is confused now.. me no like...me need answer (please?)

or is the UDMA-66 fixed by SP2?
