If you want <strong>100</strong>MB/sec speed from a new <strong>Ultra</strong> <strong>ATA</strong>/<strong>100</strong> drive now,<br />
<strong>Promise</strong> <strong>Ultra</strong><strong>100</strong> and its bundled 80-wire/40-pin IDE cable gives it to<br />
you. Our <strong>Ultra</strong><strong>100</strong> card instantly recognizes and supports up to four of<br />
these new lightning-fast <strong>Ultra</strong> <strong>ATA</strong>/<strong>100</strong> drives or any combination of<br />
<strong>Ultra</strong> <strong>ATA</strong>/<strong>100</strong>, <strong>Ultra</strong> <strong>ATA</strong>/66/33, EIDE, or <strong>ATA</strong>PI devices.**<br />
Bottom line: if you’re building a new system without <strong>Ultra</strong> <strong>ATA</strong>/<strong>100</strong><br />
support built-in to the motherboard, you’ve got to use our <strong>Ultra</strong><strong>100</strong> to<br />
say that system is fully <strong>Ultra</strong> <strong>ATA</strong>/<strong>100</strong> compatible.<br />

For Wi n d o w s<br />
With <strong>Promise</strong> <strong>Ultra</strong><strong>100</strong>, <strong>Promise</strong> makes your new, fast drives even faster<br />
under Windows ’98/NT/2000/ME. That’s not just <strong>for</strong> <strong>Ultra</strong> <strong>ATA</strong>/<strong>100</strong> drives<br />
attached to your <strong>Promise</strong> <strong>Ultra</strong><strong>100</strong>. <strong>Ultra</strong><strong>100</strong>’s software drivers automatically<br />
boost per<strong>for</strong>mance <strong>for</strong> all drives (<strong>ATA</strong> and SCSI) installed in your<br />
PC by up to 40%!*<br />

Not only does <strong>Ultra</strong><strong>100</strong> allow <strong>Ultra</strong> <strong>ATA</strong>/<strong>100</strong> drives to run at <strong>100</strong>MB/sec<br />
speed, it helps make them more reliable as well. <strong>Ultra</strong><strong>100</strong> fully supports<br />
CRC error-checking of <strong>Ultra</strong> <strong>ATA</strong> drives to assure reliable data transfers.<br />
The included FREE 80-wire/40-pin IDE cable offers further protection by<br />
adding 40 “ground” wires that reduce crosstalk between data signals<br />
which improves signal integrity to prevent data loss or error.
Mix n’ Match…<br />
You’ll Get It Fast!<br />
<strong>Promise</strong> Te c h n o l o g y ’s onboard flash BIOS<br />
automatically recognizes not only <strong>Ultra</strong> <strong>ATA</strong> / 1 0 0<br />
drives, but <strong>Ultra</strong> <strong>ATA</strong>/66/33, EIDE, Fast <strong>ATA</strong>-2<br />
drives, and <strong>ATA</strong>PI-devices* as well. <strong>Ultra</strong><strong>100</strong><br />
provides two independent data ports, each with<br />
separate device timing, that support up to 4 IDE<br />
drives or devices. Separate device timing allows<br />
users to mix and match drives and/or IDE devices<br />
and run each at their highest-rated speeds.<br />
M o re Capacity…<br />
M o re Devices<br />
U l t r a 1 0 0 s ’ onboard BIOS continues to raise the<br />
storage capacity standard. <strong>Ultra</strong><strong>100</strong> supports<br />
drive capacities up to 128GB each <strong>for</strong> massive<br />
storage capability.<br />
With <strong>Ultra</strong><strong>100</strong>, you can also support more<br />
<strong>ATA</strong>PI-ready peripherals. That’s because <strong>Ultra</strong><strong>100</strong><br />
frees up your motherboard’s two onboard IDE<br />
channels to connect more <strong>ATA</strong>PI CD-ROMs,<br />
DVDs, tape backups, or other devices. Use<br />
<strong>Ultra</strong><strong>100</strong> <strong>Ultra</strong> <strong>ATA</strong> ports to run your fastest<br />
<strong>Ultra</strong> <strong>ATA</strong> drives at their highest-rated speeds.<br />
Plug and Play <strong>for</strong><br />
Easy Install, Support<br />
The <strong>Ultra</strong><strong>100</strong> BIOS offers conflict-free, easy<br />
installation with true Plug n’ Play <strong>PCI</strong> support.<br />
<strong>Ultra</strong><strong>100</strong> even lets you dedicate hard drives to<br />
<strong>Ultra</strong><strong>100</strong> and <strong>ATA</strong> P I devices to your motherboard<br />
to eliminate conflicts. In addition, the BIOS automatically<br />
detects if the 80-wire cable is used with<br />
an <strong>Ultra</strong> DMA/<strong>100</strong> drive. If a standard 40-pin<br />
cable is used, an <strong>Ultra</strong> DMA/<strong>100</strong> drive will only<br />
run at 33MB/sec.<br />
