If the rest of the specs are the same - seek time, buffer size, etc - you will see no difference in performance. If you want your system to run better/faster & you currently only have 256MB RAM, add another 256MB (at least) "If my answers frighten you then you should cease asking scary questions" - Jules Winnfield (Samuel L. Jackson) in Pulp Fiction

It's not the hard drives that are ATA100 or ATA133 capable. That is the theoretical maximum speed of the interface. Drives these days cannot reach 100MB/S throughput speed, so like Jam said, 100 or 133 of the interface makes no practical difference.
