here's the situation... i know my P3-700e can run stably up to 150fsb, but the problem is that my harddrive keeps locking up and showing errors every now and then.... it's a Quantum AS 20gig ATA66 harddrive... i think it doesn't like the higher PCI bus...

which brand of harddrive performs well at high fsbs and can withstand overclocked PCI buses? would love to hear your suggestions..

Its not the HD, Its the IDE controller thats haveing the problem.
You need to ether find a bios editor that can step your PCI timing down or just have to lower you FSB speed.

Im sure somone else may have some info to share on what to use or better ways.
