<< Yes the "U" means Ultra.  Ultra ATA/66 is also known as Ultra DMA/66 and
 Fast ATA-2.  Ultra ATA/66 supposed allows host computers to send and receive
 data at 66.6 mb/s, which is twice the data transfer speeds of 33.3 mb/s of
 the Ultra DMA/33 spec. Hence max disk performance under PCI local bus
 environments.  :-)

Will a Ultra DMA 66 hard drive work in a system that is only Ultra DMA 33
capable? TIA.
