Re: won't work: 2.6.0 && SiI 3112 SATA

[newbiz]

I finally tried siimage with 2.6 (2.6.1-mm2) and hdparm -tT gives about
55 MB/s (~ 20 with libata)

I had understood that libata was better than siimage with non-seagate
drives, and that both were as bad with seagate drives. Has libata been
improved since this time ?

Thanks
