It does work fine with Windows XP though. I have another USB2 adapter (has 3.5" PATA, SATA and 2.5" PATA connectors) and that works fine with FreeBSD. The really weird thing is that I could fdisk even though fdisk complained it could not write to it. I then read back the MBR and it was changed. Just in case caching was involved I unplugged and replugged the drive and the modified MBR was still there... When I try to read or write to the disk dd just exits straight away with no error (ie it got EOF on the first read/write). Nothing unusual shows up in dmesg (eg no errors). Here is what I see.. umass1: Super Top USB 2.0 IDE DEVICE, rev 2.00/2.01, addr 3 da4 at umass-sim1 bus 1 target 0 lun 0 da4: Fixed Direct Access SCSI-0 device da4: 40.000MB/s transfers da4: 76319MB (156301488 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 9729C) umass1: at uhub4 port 8 (addr 3) disconnected (da4:umass-sim1:1:0:0): lost device (da4:umass-sim1:1:0:0): removing device entry umass1: detached I plan on giving it to my mother in law for christmas (she uses Windows..) so I can test with it for a little while yet :) =2D-=20 Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum GPG Fingerprint - 5596 B766 97C0 0E94 4347 295E E593 DC20 7B3F CE8C --nextPart2624541.FEV1vkLDsI Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBHSg7I5ZPcIHs/zowRAlcgAJ9Kk0m968dBkiNK5noYDQFicjKG3ACeMwFV ukDe10FyKR6CSO/HHKX0chM= =k58m -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart2624541.FEV1vkLDsI--
