I can confirm that the TX2000 + Promise ATA cables + ATA133 disks run only at ATA33 at fbsd 4.7 ad4: DMA limited to UDMA33, non-ATA66 cable or device ad6: DMA limited to UDMA33, non-ATA66 cable or device ar0: 39083MB [4982/255/63] status: READY subdisks: 0 READY ad4: 39083MB [79408/16/63] at ata2-master UDMA33 ar1: 39083MB [4982/255/63] status: READY subdisks: 0 READY ad6: 39083MB [79408/16/63] at ata3-master UDMA33 After discussing with Soeren Schmidt, the above dmesg outpout is not a cable problem or device problem but some kind of error in the chain, resulting in FreeBSD running the disk at 33.
