Looking at the documentation for the promise 100 controller it states that if you run an ata raid setup that no cdroms or other than HD devices should be hooked up to the promise controller. CDR's do not benefit from the increased bandwidth anyway so hooking it up to the mainboards ide controller is more than acceptable. Hope that helps, Jeff Seeman Technical Instructor ------------------------------------------------------------------- **** FreeBSD-Advocate ----------------------- jeff@e-lated.org **** ------------------------------------------------------------------- On Tue, 6 Aug 2002, Hanspeter Roth wrote: > Hello, > > I have a Cdwriter connected to a Promise ATA133 Tx2 controller. > I tried a Plextor Cdwriter PX-W4012A and a Memorex SixteenMAXX 1040. > > Burning works without DMA.
