[This is a repost from the amd64 list] Hi all, I've just bought an ASUS K8N-E mobo. I'm using FreeBSD-5.3-Stable (amd64) and suffering from *very* slow disk transfer rates. The chipset is an nforce3 and is correctly detected at boot : # dmesg [...] atapci0: <nVidia nForce3 Pro UDMA133 controller> port 0xffa0-0xffaf,0x376,0x170-0x177,0x3f6,0x1f0-0x1f7 at device 8.0 on pci 0 [...] My disk is an UDMA100 one, everything seems to be correct : # atacontrol mode 0 Master = UDMA100 Slave = BIOSPIO # sysctl -a [...] hw.ata.atapi_dma: 1 hw.ata.ata_dma: 1 [...] I use a new 80 lead ATA cable (shipped with my mobo)... Evrything should be okay, but the whole system is very very slow. Copying a 600 MB takes about 10 minutes (1 MB/sec) and makes the system nearly unusable during the copy. Do you have any idea ?
