I think they're .32, Asus have released the .40s, I've had no problems with with either and recommend both, but since I haven't heard of any problem related specifically to either of those drivers, I generally recommend the latest. do i need to update the serial ata bios? Look down. I have the asus 1007 bios installed on my version 2.0 deluxe... That includes 4.2.27 of the SATA firmware which is the latest available (if you know better, let me know) Ben -- A7N8X FAQ: www.ben.pope.name/a7n8x_faq.html Questions by email will likely be ignored, please use the newsgroups.
