Not impossible, but my drive doesn't work with any DMA mode in 7.1 (and
it worked
in 7.0 and in MSWindows).
Another question directly related to that problem is what are the
software or
config files which have or could have an influence on the drive
performances?
I'm nearly certain that my problem doesn't come from the kernel. I know
also
that it's not hdparm (I tried the version included in 7.0).
