encore pci controller card usb 2.0 showing up as usb revision 1.0

2007-08-05 Thread Vlad Skvortsov

Hi!

I'm a bit puzzled by the behavior of my FreeBSD 6-STABLE:

11:47 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ # uname -a
FreeBSD bear.escuela 6.2-STABLE FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE #2: Sun Jul  8 
22:21:10 PDT 2007 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/BEAR  i386


I've installed a USB2.0 PCI card by Encore 
(http://www.encore-usa.com/product_item.php?region=usbid=2pgid=18pid=40) 
but it shows up as USB revision 1.0:


uhci1: VIA 83C572 USB controller port 0x1020-0x103f irq 10 at device 
16.0 on p

ci0
uhci1: [GIANT-LOCKED]
usb1: VIA 83C572 USB controller on uhci1
usb1: USB revision 1.0
uhub1: VIA UHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1
uhub1: 2 ports with 2 removable, self powered
uhci2: VIA 83C572 USB controller port 0x1060-0x107f irq 11 at device 
16.1 on p

ci0
uhci2: [GIANT-LOCKED]
usb2: VIA 83C572 USB controller on uhci2
usb2: USB revision 1.0
uhub2: VIA UHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1
uhub2: 2 ports with 2 removable, self powered

The data transfer rate from the attached drive also seems to be USB1-ish:

11:54 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ # !513
dd if=/dev/da0 of=/dev/null bs=1m count=10
10+0 records in
10+0 records out
10485760 bytes transferred in 10.137750 secs (1034328 bytes/sec)

Any clues?

 Suggestions?



Check out Addonics, particularly the Saturn system.
I have one of these:

Yep, this looks interesting. However, can you say if there is any 
significant advantage of this Saturn enclosures over standard ones, 
besides the cyphering feature?


Thanks!

If you want encryption, you can use geli(8). This encrypts the raw disk
with AES. I'm using it with my USB backup disk.
  


Yes, I'm aware of that. I guess my question was: why did you refer to 
this particular enclosure? Or you just happen to have this one and this 
is the reason?

Hi!
