I think part of the problem is that you have the 40GB drive slaved to
the 3GB drive...
That 40GB drive is a much faster drive than is your 3GB drive...the
controller from the 3GB drive may very well be holding it back.
You might want to try making the 40GB drive the secondary master, and
see if that clears anything up for you.
