Hmm. I just know, how to find out the UDMA level:
They are for both devices at that ATA channel: UDMA100
ad0: 38166MB <ST340015A> [77545/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA100
ad1: 152627MB <SAMSUNG SP1604N> [310101/16/63] at ata0-slave
UDMA100

R5.3 behaves not worse, when I drop ad0 to UDMA66 with atacontrol.
