Hi,

It is well "known" on overclocking circles that Maxtor and Fujitsu HD's
are no good for overclocked computers and IBM and WD's are good.  I
can't for the life of me understand what effect the FSB speed would have
on a hard drive.  Why would the hard drive care if the system were
running at 66, 100, 133 or 153 MHz?  Are any of the connectors on the
cable connected to the FSB and if not, why would it be bothered by it?

Thanks,

Art
