Hello,

1 Maxtor 6Y080P0 on primary IDE and 2 optical drives on secundary IDE (DVD-RW master, CD-RW slave). all are connected with 80pin cables:

libata version 2.00 loaded.
pata_via 0000:00:0f.1: version 0.2.0
ata1: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x1F0 ctl 0x3F6 bmdma 0xFC00 irq 14
ata2: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0x170 ctl 0x376 bmdma 0xFC08 irq 15
scsi0 : pata_via
ata1.00: ATA-7, max UDMA/133, 160086528 sectors: LBA ata1.00: ata1: dev 0 multi count 16
ata1.00: configured for UDMA/133

Anyone can help me check if I'm right?

Each byte is for each channel, LSB is secondary slave. Interesting bit is bit 4
1 = 80PIN.

Mine:
50: 07 e6 07 e1

So: I have 40 40 40 40

> 50: e6 e2 17 e0

Yours: 40 40 80 40

So the silly BIOS is doing something wrong :/ I would expect 40 40 80 80.
I will try to play with the cables to see what I can get.

regards
Rudolf
