Dont quote me on it, but its the same cable. I noticed it kicked the ATA
side of things in when I had an older ATA 66, when I put a newer harddrive
in, I noticed it said ATA 100 in the boot up, so I am assuming the 80 wire
cable is to get the ATA side of things jiving, its up to the hardrive people
on how the numbers work and how well they can utilize it, also the chipset
has to support it to I think, so its a few factors..
