No, the driver detects it automatically.

Note that for UDMA66 you need a special cable, and the driver also
knows about some drives with broken UDMA66 implementation and
automatically falls back to UDMA33.  If you're out shopping for UDMA66
drives, the current word is that IBM is the best choice, and you
should avoid Seagate.
