Contrary to what is posted on Low End Mac, I have it working. I have a 60gb Hitachi Travelstar running on my PB (ah, 8mb cache is so much better than 512k). I would assume it's negotiated down to ATA-5, but the language on LEM dosn't suggest that would happen. |

I've had a 40 GB drive in a 3400c, but that is a newer PCI-based model. It's great to know that the NuBus-based systems can do it as well.

Actually, I can't put 7.6.1 on it. I'd need to create a partition at the beginning of the disk, and the beginning of the disk is corrupt (this started as an experiment to see if I could even see the drive, being ATA-6). I'm running 9 on a partition 10gb in to the disk. I might be getting another ata-6 drive from a friend this weekend, I'll post results for 7.6.1 if I do.

I will say this, the performance of almost everything is dramatically faster. MPW starts in about 1 second, IE 5.1 in about 4 (no internet connection here at work, so I can't speak as to browsing times). Opera 5 in about 9.
