Possibly it would. But the controllers in IDE hard drives have got
much more clever since then.


NOW it will - it'll rip nicely to an ATA-133 drive on a P3/1.2GHz.

When we built the first machine though, I couldn't get more than 4,
MAYBE 5, tracks to rip simultaneously without dropouts to the ATA-66
drive. SCSI drive took all 8 tracks without a hiccup.
