Your BIOS ought to have a setting which throttles this down.
From what I see in the BIOS it just says DMA Mode and then Enabled or
Disabled. Unfortunately it doesnt look like any drive-specific options
to choose which speed.

I checked the links and saw no dmesg or drive models for all drives. I
can tell you UDMA 133 was not an official spec, a least at first. It
was a maxtor only thing, and not all chipsets handled it. Basically
maxtor tightened the timings on the ide cable signals to squence extra
the opportunity to get an Asus board to test, but I'm
not going to shell out money for something if it isn't even a hardware
problem.
Thanks very much.

One is being used and one has never been touched. I would like to format

How should I proceed?

Hi. I am not sure the status of it for AMD64, but I do know it requires

Hi everyone. Last night I finally worked out some issues with my AMD64
machine and got it up and operational. It's an AMD64 3000+ with 1.5GB
RAM, and five 7200RPM hard drives (total of 720 gigs) running FreeBSD
5.4-RELEASE (amd64). When doing testing and initial
install/configuration of this

I to am having similar problems with SATA drives, to the point where the

Well while all my drives are PATA, I should mention that I'm not even

I have had a similar problem with SATA hard drives on an Intel PNSLK

would not recognize as DMA, only PIO, in the BIOS there was a setting
for ATA/IDE Mode, the

Only reason I didn't put the DVD burner in DMA is because a K3b howto

guess I could try it but I'm

So you have no similar problems in -STABLE? How about when untarring a
