Well, a short test of my DTLA-307045 on the VIA chip was ok with msdos and ext2fs (ext3 actually, but who cares for read-only), but if the implementation in the drive has changed, I'm interested to see what will happen soon, as I expect more drives to support tagged queueing now that it's been in the ATA drafts for some time. -- Matthias Andree "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."
