IIRC, I have several of them running fine (I am not 100% sure, I am on holidays at the moment :-)). You might want to check the firmware of that drive. I have upgraded the FW on my Quantum Atlas I and II drives a (long) time ago. You might want to look at ftp://ftp.quantum.com for FW upgrades. When I am back on wednesday, I can give you more info about the FW stuff. In case you want to download a new one, I have written a small tool for FreeBSD to upgrade the FW on several SCSI devices (the Quantum Atlas and Viking are supported). -Andre > # camcontrol tags da0 -v > (pass0:ahc0:0:0:0): dev_openings 24 > (pass0:ahc0:0:0:0): dev_active 0 > (pass0:ahc0:0:0:0): devq_openings 24 > (pass0:ahc0:0:0:0): devq_queued 0 > (pass0:ahc0:0:0:0): held 0 > (pass0:ahc0:0:0:0): mintags 24 > (pass0:ahc0:0:0:0): maxtags 32 > > # camcontrol inquiry da1 > pass1: Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device > pass1: Serial Number 174716034271 > pass1: 20.000MB/s transfers (20.000MHz, offset 15), Tagged Queueing Enabled > # camcontrol tags da1 -v > (pass1:ahc0:0:1:0): dev_openings 253 > (pass1:ahc0:0:1:0): dev_active 0 > (pass1:ahc0:0:1:0): devq_openings 253 > (pass1:ahc0:0:1:0): devq_queued 0 > (pass1:ahc0:0:1:0): held 0 > (pass1:ahc0:0:1:0): mintags 2 > (pass1:ahc0:0:1:0): maxtags 255 > > It seems like da0 is the problem device.
