Hi Don,

i haven't done a Google on the drive, but my ATA-100 80GB Seagate 
Barracuda is also labelled "7200.7", so it sounds to me like a larger 
version of mine! Could be just a coincidence though?

quickly checking :

Barracuda ST3200822A 200GB Hard Drive (Seagate-ST3200822A) - Geek. ...
... Barracuda ST3200822A 200GB Hard Drive (EIDE ATA-100, 7200 RPM, 8MB - 
SKU: ST3200822A). Price Info: $112.99 - $155.00 from 20 Sellers - Get 
Pricing Alert! ...
geek.pricegrabber.com/ search_getprod.php/masterid=1696745 - 49k - 20 
Dec 2004 -

So yes they're ATA-100 [UDMA-5]!
