issues with new sata dvd-drive

Wed May 18 08:24:59 UTC 2011

hi there,

i recently switched my old pata dvd-drive with a new sata one:

cd0: <HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GH24NS50 XP02> Removable CD-ROM SCSI-0 device 
cd0: 150.000MB/s transfers (SATA 1.x, UDMA5, ATAPI 12bytes, PIO 8192bytes)
cd0: cd present [355062 x 2048 byte records]

however now i experience the following issues:

1)
otaku% recoverdisk /dev/cd0 ~/test.iso 
Bigsize = 1048576, medsize = 65536, minsize = 2048
        start    size     block-len state          done     remaining    % done

...also when issuing this command (4)), at some point the drive starts spinning
down and then up again several times. this doesn't happen with a larger
blocksize (see 1-3)). i hit ctrl+t at the exact moment the drive started
spinning down the first time.

i'm seeing the following warnings via dmesg:

(cd0:ahcich2:0:0:0): READ(10). CDB: 28 0 0 4 9a c0 0 0 3b 0

i'm running a recent HEAD (r221878) on amd64. my kernel contains

device ahci
device scbus
device cd
device pass

this my sata controller:

ahci0: <Intel ICH9 AHCI SATA controller> port 0xe600-0xe607,0xe700-0xe703,0xe800-0xe807,0xe900-0xe903,0xea00-0xea1f mem 0xfa206000-0xfa2067ff irq 19 at device 31.2 on pci0
ahci0: AHCI v1.20 with 6 3Gbps ports, Port Multiplier supported

two other issues i'm experiencing (if their really are issues and not me doing
something wrong are:

1)
when running cdrecord(1) to burn a DVD (DVD+R) i get the following warning:

cdrecord: DMA speed too slow (OK for 10x). Cannot write at speed 18x.

2)

...so eventually nothing gets broken by the warning about the wrong startsec.

cheers.
