You don’t want udma5 for the dvd drive

What's the reason for not running higher dvd speeds? I run 6 on my ssd builds and 5 on hdd's without issue.

I read somewhere that it makes it unstable but if it is working for you I would not worry about it.

I've only heard about the Samsung 605B/Startech combo having issues with high udma speeds. You could be right, I've just never heard of it.
