> Are UltraATA/100 and PATA/IDE equivalent, and which are correct for a T40p? I'm aware this machine is PATA, not SATA and think it supports ATA/100. Looking at ZipZoomFly, similar drives are listed as UltraATA/100 or PATA/IDE. I do not know which to order, and see no reference to either on the ibm spec page.
