I have some AOpen 52x/32x CD-RWriter, that advertises itself as DMA capable, but has a hard time sustaining such access. The only way to make access to this drive safe is by reducing it to PIO-3 even on XP, which makes libata somewhat unusable on this drive, especially for writing. What's hindering the ability to force a mode in libata, as is possible with the normal ide-driver?
