I am trying to optimize my new drive, and I attempted to set its UDMA mode
last night:
# hdparm -X70 /dev/hdd
/dev/hdd:
setting xfermode to 70 (UltraDMA mode6)
HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(setxfermode) failed: Input/output error
The drive is ATA 133 and I believe UDMA mode6, consequently. Any ideas on this
I/O error?
Here's the rest of the info that the drive dumps:
# hdparm -i /dev/hdd
