What OS do you intend to run on this BP6?
PC133 RAM is supported, however few BP6 systems wil ever run faster than 110MHz FSB.
If a new drive will be matched to the system - plan on getting a Promise/Maxtor ATA100 or ATA133 PCI controller card. The onboard ATA66 controller is very shakey with newer drives & often can't recognize their parameters correctly.
