That is what it looks like, yes. The cable is detected by checking whether a certain pin is grounded. From how I read the standard, the pin should be grounded in the connector, so I can imagine a very strange cable which has 80 pins up to the first device and 40 to the second. > ad4: DMA limited to UDMA33, device found non-ATA66 cable > ad4: 117246MB <Maxtor 6Y120L0 YAR41BW0> at ata2-master UDMA33 > ad5: 156334MB <Maxtor 6Y160P0 YAR41BW0> at ata2-slave UDMA133 > Which is strange, since both drives are on the same cable... I agree that this is very strange. I haven't read the ATA standard in any kind of detail though... Does this commit fix it though? - Philip -- Philip Paeps Please don't Cc me, I am philip@freebsd.org subscribed to the list. > Is there anywhere in Canterbury that offers one hour film processing??
