On channel 0 You have an UDMA100 disk and an UDMA33 cd-rw. The motherboard IDE controller steps down the speed to the speed of the slowest device. You have to move the cd-rw device to the channel 1. The motherboard will have printed next to the IDE sockets, primary IDE and secondary IDE, which are channel 0 and channel 1. Both HD's and the cd/rw have jumpers next to where the ribbon connects. The jumpers have 3 positions, master, slave, and cable select. If you look closely on the green board you will see MA, SL, and CS to help you identify what jumper is located where. If all three devices are jumpered with CS, then just swap the cd-rw with the other HD. If your channel 0 HD is jumpered as master and the cd/rw is jumpered as slave, them you have to change the cd-rw jumper to master and swap it with the channel 1 HD, then jumper the new HD to slave and plug it in where the cd-rw was on the channel 0 ribbon. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org]On Behalf Of JacobRhoden Sent: Monday, December 08, 2003 1:07 AM To: Jarrod; freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Why would drive run at UDMA33?

Seriously, i had a look and worked out how to list/display the modes of drives, and i am not sure what commands i would type to help fix the speed? I can now show people this though: ATA channel 0: Master: ad0 ATA/ATAPI rev 5 Slave: acd0 ATA/ATAPI rev 0 ATA channel 1: Master: ad2 ATA/ATAPI rev 6 Slave: no device present (The cable is the right way around, and the drive is the only drive on the cable, thanks for suggestions though).
