Just as a note, it doesn't have to just be the cable or the second device, it can be either one or both or maybe the controller too. :-) I don't remember, but I might actually be using an 80-wire cable here on my box at work (as if it would matter with only an ATA33 controller): atapci0: port 0xf000-0xf00f at device 7.1 on pci0 ad0: 19541MB [39703/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA33 ata0-slave: DMA limited to UDMA33, non-ATA66 compliant cable ad1: 6149MB [12495/16/63] at ata0-slave UDMA33 acd0: CDROM at ata1-master using PIO4 afd0: 96MB [32/64/96] at ata1-slave using PIO0 ata0-master is actually the device that is capable of ATA66 (actually ATA100 I think). I think ata0-slave is only capable of ATA33, but I could be wrong. My system at home with an ATA100-capable drive on a PIIX4 controller doesn't mention anything about a non-compliant cable (though it really is an 80-wire cable, maybe that's why), but it is also the only thing on the bus (I use SCSI for everything else): atapci0: port 0xffa0-0xffaf at device 7.1 on pci0 ad0: 39083MB [79408/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA33 -- Chris Dillon - cdillon@wolves.k12.mo.us - cdillon@inter-linc.net FreeBSD: The fastest and most stable server OS on the planet - Available for IA32 (Intel x86) and Alpha architectures - IA64, PowerPC, UltraSPARC, and ARM architectures under development - http://www.freebsd.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
