Maxtor drives now ship with this cable although i found out before they did that cable length is a big issue on these drives. No 2 things can be the same, they cannot exist in the same space at the same time. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Jim C Sent: Monday, February 28, 2000 8:23 AM To: unclemib; freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: UDMA Problems Many people I have run across are not aware that UDMA drives require <= 18 inch cables. Is the cabling you are using for your UDMA drives > 18 inches?
