    The 6.4 gig really flies because my motherboard supports UltraDMA.  It's 
twice as fast as my other drives.  
    Another peculiarity - I got an Acer 32x UltraDMA CDROM as well.  I could 
not get it to work unless it was set as master.  If I had it set as slave my 
HDD light stayed on continously and would not boot past the OS/2 logo.  I 
thought it'd be best if it was secondary slave (no sandwiching), but no go 
unless it's a secondary master.  I'm not complaining..
