Beg/borrow/steal an old display card (ISA is good when you're desperate). A bad bus master implementation/duff card could hog the bus. If both drives fail like this you are left with the M/B as prime suspect. This is pretty thin I know. BTW the transfer rate on the Yamaha looks a bit strange. -- ian j hart To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
