This is probably the same problem from years ago when these machines
wouldn't play mp3s from an ATA disk attached to a PCI ATA card without
stuttering.  I believe the 7500 and 7300 and maybe others (8500s?) had this
problem though a number of 7600 owners (including myself) had no problems
with it.  It has to do with the PCI timings or something like that.  Sorry,
memory's a bit foggy from back then.
