It seems that you *don't* have a CMD640b. Don't use CMD640 then. It just 
slows down your machine (does not allow concurrent I/O on both channels). 
Your machine should be just fine without it. You only need CMD640 if you 
have a CMD640 controller, like so:

pci0:8:    CMD, device=0x0640, class=storage (ide) int a irq 14 [no 
driver assigned]
