BR>If one were to install an 80-conductor IDE ribbon cable (rated for UDMA/133,

BR>Things sure seem spiffier since I upgraded the cables from 40 to 80, and I'm

 Becasue of the better CrossTalk tollerance, THE reason for the 80 wire
 cables in the first place, posabiblky. But somewhat unlikely at 33
NOW this in concidering the use of an 12 inch 0r so cable. The longer
cables are more prone to crosstalk even at 33.
