Ah well, I stand corrected.  I at least had never heard or seen a UDMA44 standard in a BIOS setting or otherwise.  This hard drive, btw, sustained physical damage (dropped while on).  Long story on that one.

Actually, there was a UDMA44 standard. It's defined in ATA-5 (Ansi NCITS 340-2000), tough I've never
heard of hardware supporting only UDMA44...
