Hi, my name is Alexandre, Brazil.

I believe that Segate Hard Disk don´t have a Sata 133 models, only Sata 150, and Samsung have Sata 133. My motherboard Soyo Kt 600 Dragon Plus v2.0 accepts Sata 133 Hard Disk. I can works with a Sata 150 Hard Disk?

Thanks, Alexandre, Brazil.

Alexandre, welcome to the PC Guide.

The serial ata (sata) standard is 150 (with sataII being 300). The parallel ata (pata) standards are 33, 66, 100, and 133. I suspect the mobo channel you are referring to must be pata 133, which is pretty typical nowadays for hard drives. I have never heard of sata 133, I don't think they exist. One of the defining features of the sata architecture was its 150/MBsec rating.
