Rob, the most significant thing I see is that it looks like the drive is only
capable of doing udma2. Since this is a new drive, I'm assuming it should be
able to do much more.
First thing I'd check is to make sure that you don't have a 40 conductor IDE
cable on that drive instead of the 80 that you need.
Got another cable you can switch out and try?
HTHs! :-)
PS BTW, why is that drive /dev/hdd and not /dev/hda? Is it an add on? That
looks like the slave position on the 2nd channel. Make sure your settings are
correct there...
