There will be no problem. Western digital only makes drives with ata 100. Maxtor makes them with ata 133 support but you know how much I hate maxtors. The speed difference is only for the 1st second of data transfer so basically, you won't notice a difference at all. My best drives are ata 100 and not ata 133 drives. Feel better?
