Hi Guys,
I have a samsung 80 gb 7200 rpm harddrive. Few days back, i tested my harddrive with official samsung hard drive tool as well as with SiSoft Sandra 2005 and Aida32 Enterprise Edition (Hardware Information and benchmarking tools). All these software reports that my hardrive supports UATA133 and that means it should be running in UDMA-6 Mode. But the highest mode i have available in my bios and windows is UDMA-5. I have checked the cable, its an 80 conductor cable(with one end blue and other black). It came with the motherboard itself.
Is there any other superior cable available in the market for UATA133 ID Harddrives? If yes, approx how much it costs and how can i recognise it. please tell me any visual clues to recognise it as retailers here are not much informed of these minute technical specifications.
Please help!
Sumit
