Actually, I beleive that's only if they both go at the same time. I might be wrong, but I know I've seen HDs running at like ATA100 and ATA66 on my old video comp... Same channel and all, of course.

if they are both same ata speed then is okay or else the whole thing will run at the slower drive speed.
