Same Problem here, the harddrive (2.5 Samsung HM121HC) running with Kernel 2.6.18-194.32.1.el5 (x86_64) produces errors on high load. With one step back kernel the errors are gone. Im already changed the harddrive with a new one, same errors on the newest kernel. dmesg output: hdc: status error:

Is it the ITE IT8212 ATA RAID Controller ? I would suspect that raid card - the few I've tried didn't work well even with the manufacturer's supplied windows drivers. The linux drivers might not be any better. I'm not sure why you distrust DMA, or if it's just on this one card that you have

Bad sectors get reallocated automatically, so you might not find any with testing. You need to see how many have been reallocated. SMART should already be enabled, so maximize your term window and type: smartctl -a /dev/sdb That will show the reallocated sector count, as well as power on hours,

In the BIOS I turn DMA off for /dev/hda and /dev/hdc, but they still show up in /proc/ide/.../settings as using_dma 1. say HUH?IDE PIO modes are like 3-7 MBytes/sec and require 100% CPU utilization during the transfer phase. why in dogs name would you be doing this in 2011 ?
