  • Page 5 PMC243/244/245. 1.1 Features The PMC233 and PMC234 use the CMD Technology CMD646 controller, the PMC235 uses the CMD648 controller. The PMC243, PMC244 and PMC245 use the Promise Technology PDC20269 controller (fully PCI 2.1 compliant). The most significant difference between the two sets of products is the performance, both on the PCI (the PMC233, PMC234 and PMC235 supports 32bit/33Mhz, the PMC243, PMC244 and PMC245 supports 32 bit wide PCI and speeds up to 66Mhz) and on the ATA (to disk) bus.
