I'm thinking of putting an old IBM 8GB disk (not Ultra-DMA) on the
same controller with a new IBM 60GB (Ultra ATA/100) drive. Will I lose
performance on the 60GB drive if I do?
(I remember mixing drive speeds being a problem on IDE years ago, but
I don't know if that's still the case with recent motherboards, hard disks,
transfer modes, etc. FWIW, this motherboard has the VIA VT82C686B south
bridge.)
Thanks,
Randall
