Are you using a UDMA133 cable? I cant recall the UDMA133 specs, but I know UDMA66 and 100 use a different cable then UDMA33. UDMA133 might use the same cable as 66 and 100, but Im certain a 33 cable would force the drive to be UDMA33 only, even if both drive and controller is capable of UDMA133. It might also be a BIOS issue, check your settings. -- R To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
