Hi, Is the new ATA driver ready for production use? What benefit(s) would 48-bit addressing bring? ---included story--- 3 November, 2001: Soren Schmidt, author of the ATA driver, tested a new 160 GB ATA harddisk provided kindly by Maxtor Corporation with the new ATA specification's 48-bit addressing mode support in FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT. The results show that the code is stable and functions as it should and will be backported to STABLE. --- francis a. vidal [bitstop network services] | http://www.dagupan.com streaming media + web hosting | http://www.keystone.ph v(02)330-2871,(02)330-2872; f(02)330-2873 | http://www.kuro.ph To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
