IIRC, you don't need it unless you are running Windows 95 or 98 (not sure about 98SE).

BTW, Intel has a new proggie that includes the Ultra ATA drivers and it is called Intel Application Accelerator v. 2.0. It's available for download at Intel's website.

EDIT: The Ultra ATA utility is to allow the full usage of the ATA 100 spec.; i.e. harddrive burst speeds up to 100MB per second. Modern versions of Windows have this built in already.

hey bradley.
intel ultra ata storage driver will install the drivers for your disks (IDEs, cd-roms) and optimize the configuration. however it was replaced by the intel application accelerator. so, look for this one.
in the intel support website youll find out all the information you want.
this is the link for the intel application accelerator. just select your OS and get it. its awesome.
