My hard disk supports Ultra ATA/100 (UDMA Mode 5), but my mobo seems to be too old to allow my hard disk to use it.
The maximum I can get at my current configuration is Ultra ATA/33 (UDMA Mode 2).
I know that adding an Ultra ATA/100 expansion card will allow me to use UATA/100.
Now, the question is will I get a NOTICEABLE performance boost if I move up from 33 to 100??
If so, where will I notice the difference in performance? Will it increase overall speed SIGNIFICANTLY, will it speed up 3D rendering, boot up time ... anything?
In short, are there any major advantages of Ultra ATA/100 over Ultra ATA/33, and if so, what are they?
