Bursar 0 Posted April 1, 2001 Windows 2000 doesn't support ATA/100 speed. It will only run at ATA/66. Benchmarking should confirm this. SP2 will fix this oversight. You could regularly defrag the drive, that should help. If the two drives are chained together, and you have a spare ID port, then seperate them and make them both master drives. This should also help. Share this post Link to post
