Ok -- I checked dmesg and this is what it has..

ad0: 57259MB <xxx> ... ata0-master WDMA2 (not sure what the 'W' is)

If I unplug the dvd as several suggested I get

ad0: 57259MB <maxtor 6l060L3> [116336/16/63] at ata0-master WDMA2

(aka same thing)


Any suggestions on how to get it up to UDMA 5 (also what is the 'W' before the
DMA2 ?

Alan
