Quick question: ATA66 Raid is same speed as ATA133 raid, right?

[fumbduck]

I remember reading somewhere that harddrives cant reach anywhere near the ATA### speed they have, the highest that has actually been record is somewhere around ata35. Can someone confirm this? ATA66 riad controllers happen to be considerably cheaper ;-P

I think the fastest and ide drive goes up to now is about 55mb/sec. Are you going to use striping because if you are, the bandwidth will be way more than ata66 can handle. And where are you getting ata66 raid cards for less than ata133 raid? I just checked out ebay & pricewatch and ultra133 raid is cheaper.
