I think it depends on a number of things. Some controllers may struggle if you put a UDMA33 disk and a UDMA100 disk on the same cable and controller - i.e. the whole controller may only run at 33. However, I have two UDMA100 disks in my system (on separate controllers), an IBM DeathStar 30GB and a Maxtor 40GB. The maxtor is newer and I can get more tracks when I use it, so I guess you can have one drive running faster than another. I use the maxtor for audio data... thanks, Andy
