I agree. I run ATA-100 drives all the time with ATA-33 and ATA-66 controllers routinely with little difficulty. Its possible that something isn't negotiating correctly. Are you using a ATA-100 cable, or a 33/66 cable? I'm curious if the drive senses it, and thinks it should be in 100 mode, but the controller is too old to know about it, and works at 33.... In any event, I suspect this is more hardware related or a general bug that has little to do with the fact its that drive on that controller. -Brian > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > > Hello Blaz, > > 28 Dec 2001, 19:05:13, you wrote: > > >> Works fine during 2.5 years with my old > >> ad0: 6149MB <WDC AC26400B> [13328/15/63] at ata0-master ATA33 > > You have a ATA33-only controller, but a ATA100-capable drive. > > This could be the reason for the problems. > > Should not.
