Generic PC running FreeBSD 5.4, the PATA controller is an inexpensive
2-port controller from Adaptec. Showing:
atapci0: <HighPoint HPT370 UDMA100 controller> port 0xa000-0xa0ff,
0x9c00-0x9c03,0x9800-0x9807,0x9400-0x9403,0x9000-0x9007 irq 11 at
device 1.0 on pci2
ata2: channel #0 on atapci0
ata3: channel #1 on atapci0
ad4: 238475MB <ST3250824A/3.AAE> [484521/16/63] at ata2-master UDMA100
ad6: 238475MB <ST3250824A/3.AAE> [484521/16/63] at ata3-master UDMA100
ad7: 131071MB <ST3300831A/3.06> [266302/16/63] at ata3-slave UDMA100
The machine has four 250G disks working just fine. I added a new
ST3300831 300G 7200.8 disk and it's showing like it wouldn't do lba48.
atacontrol is showing that lba48 is supported:
ATA channel 3, Slave, device ad7:
Protocol ATA/ATAPI revision 7
device model ST3300831A
serial number 5NF1SVQQ
firmware revision 3.06
cylinders 16383
heads 16
sectors/track 63
lba supported 268433408 sectors
lba48 supported 268433408 sectors

(And the 250G disk in the same channel but as master disk:
ATA channel 3, Master, device ad6:
Protocol ATA/ATAPI revision 7
device model ST3250824A
serial number 4ND23HXN

)
Any ideas why the 300G disk isn't working? I couldn't find any
references to issues with >250G disks.
