I have a test machine with FreeBSD-5.3 RC2. It only has 2 drives (ATA). I am seeing this error (intermittently): ad0: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA retrying (2 retries left) LBA=3239915 ad0: FAILURE - WRITE_DMA timed out Though the system seems to otherwise be working just fine. This used to be a Windows/XP system for a long time, and I never had any trouble. So I wonder what the above can be indicative of (ie: bad cabling, or?). Thanks.
