What Do System Requirments Really Mean?

It looks like some of the new combo drives coming out will require a P2 400. I have a P2 350 does that mean if I get one of these drives it will run but not at 48/24/48/16. Maybe it will run a little under? That wouldn't put a strain on my system would it? Thanks, Craig.

Not much but I can have a P4 Celeron 1.7GHz and a 478-pin P4 motherboard (either SDR or DDR or both) for the price of a 48/24/48/16 combo drive.
