    Your BIOS should report the ATA speed either during Boot or if you go to the BIOS settings.

    Even if this is not the case, during boot it will report the manufacturer of drives. To my knowledge, only Maxtor drives are made to ATA133 specs. All others operate at 100.
    The more I learn, the more I come to realize how little it is I know.
