UltraATA/66(forIntel®810andIntel® 810 DC-100only)
AccordingtothepreviousATA/IDEharddrivedatatransferprotocol,thesignalingwayto
senddatawasinsynchronousstrobemodebyusingtherising edgeofthe strobesignal.
TheUltraATA/33 protocoldoublesthebursttransferratefrom16.6MB/sto33.3MB/s,by
using boththerising and falling edgesofthestrobesignal,thistimeUltraATA/66 doubles
