Via IDE Miniport Driver

[GMAN]

Hi, I have a KD7-Raid board. Should I install the Via IDE Miniport Driver? I have already installed the 4in1 pack.

I see on the site the reasons to install the miniport driver are if you have:

IDE Zip drive
ATA100 hard drives with Windows 2000 prior to Service pack 1 ATA133 hard drives under Windows 2000 and Windows XP IDE Zip drives under Win2K

I do have a Maxtor ATA133 harddrive. Should I install the drivers and if so what do they do? Will it transfer data quicker?

Many thanks

I would not install it. Just install the latest Hyperion 4in1 driver set v4.48
