I moved the drive into a rackmount system with a 1200 Mhz Athlon, a Microstar K7T Pro2-A. The drive is a Fujitsu MPD 3137 AH-B6. The drive boots to the point where the filesystems are mounted and then start printing disk error messages like ad0 WRITE command timeout tag=0 serv=0 resetting ata0. resetting devices .. device disappeared! 1 done I've looked at the BIOS attempting to determine what to do to fix. Is there a guide somewhere telling me what to do with UDMA and the various options to set? Setting UDMA and trying various PIO modes did not get me far was the disk would not boot. Advice or help welcome.
