A7V133 has 33 mhz or 66 mhz PCI slots?

Still trying to improve system performance and the tech support at ATTO asked me this question and I was unable to answer them and I can't seem to find the answer either. So any help would be appreciated.
 
32bit 33Mhz PCI slots.

If you don't know it's save to assume 32/33.

64bit or 66Mhz are less common and used in servers and high end workstations mainly. It's rare for a desktop sector board to have 64/33 or 64/66 PCI, they are almost all 32/33.
 
Thanks. This is what I suspected. Still not sure what's going on with my system though. My friend ran the same benchmarks I did. His writes sucked but he smoked me in reads. That should not be! He has a single IBM Deskstar. I have 2 IBM Deskstars RAIDed as well as two Cheetah X15s RAIDed and he smokes both of these configurations.

I just bought new cables and everything. I'm wondering now if Windows 2000 is somehow throttling things. Although he's also running Windows 2000. Argh this is frustrating.
