A Faster System

Hi; I have a choice of hard disk setup options. Which one is faster for linux? 1. Use Two hard drives at ATA66, in which I place the swap partition and VAR partition on the other disk, so linux will access both disks at the same time. (ie. opening a program and writing a log). 2. Use one disk at ATA100. (only one disk due to the IDE cable not being long enough - I have a full tower and some of the drive bays are quite away from the motherboard) If 2. then will SuSE 7.2 support the Promise Ultra ATA100 controller on the Asus A7V motherboard? Thanks for your help. -- --------- Darren Harmon http://users.breathemail.net/darren.harmon1/
