Hello

I am using round, 80-wire, ATA-100 IDE cables.  FreeBSD 4.5 release.  
dmesg shows

ata0    #ATA 33 (no ATA 66 compliant cable), so both drives on that channel 
default to PIO mode.  Do I need to use different cables?  I was under the 
impression that default was DMA if possible.   Please cc to:

TIA, Best Regards,
