UDMA/133. All hype?

[Napoleon]

Okay, I know. It is all hype. Even UDMA/66 should be just barely able to cater for existing 7200rpm IDE HDs. But my question is, does that apply to master/slave configurations as well? With those, 2x66MB/s sounds like a good idea. Kee-rekt?

Basically. Ata-100 is quite sufficient for a single modern IDE drive.
The only real advantages would be with native ability to detect super large drives and improved performance with 2 IDE drives on the single cable.

My thoughts exactly. But I was wondering if someone has actually benchmarked two identical Maxtor drives in UDMA/100 and UDMA/133 master/slave RAID0 setups, e.g by switching the RAID card.
