If anyone has a 10 15 or 20gb ATA-100 7200rpm drive that they're ditching soon, let me know!! I need one, as I just discovered that a drive I bought on another forum is a 5400, not a 7200... and I really need my boot drive to be a 7200 to properly feel my new perf. increases to be gained by a few mods I'm working on...

Altho I have no drive to spare, I am always interested in experiments like the one I suppose you are working on. Care to share?

Nothing too special... click my username and find "ragejg's ongoing kt266a mod"... I intended on turning my VTXE+ into a VTXH+ of sorts by way of installing a multiplier switch... I painted my XP1600 AROIA Y and tried the mod but it didn't work. I may be missing a capacitor or something, and I need to dive further into it... The addition of this mod plus the multiplier switch and active northbridge cooling theoretically would've allowed me to use 166fsb for a nice perfect 66/33 pci/agp divider...

No go for now, but no biggie, I'll still be able to kick up fsb for now... I don't know if this much work on a kt266a is worth it..:(:(

I wanted to get all these mods done at once and feel the full perf. increase...
