Hi There,
I have a problem with my Promise TX2000 controller, and probably an SX6000.
The run UDMA33 insted of UDMA6 (Promise configuration) - well at least
FreeBSD says UDMA33.
My demsg says;
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ad4: DMA limited to UDMA33, non-ATA66 cable or device
ad6: DMA limited to UDMA33, non-ATA66 cable or device
ar0: 39100MB <ATA RAID1 array> [4984/255/63] status: READY subdisks:
0 READY ad4: 39205MB <Maxtor 6E040L0> [79656/16/63] at ata2-master UDMA33
ad4: SuperSwap enclosure [FAN:2789rpm TEMP:32.0C 5.130V 11.590V]
1 READY ad6: 39205MB <Maxtor 6E040L0> [79656/16/63] at ata3-master UDMA33
ad6: SuperSwap enclosure [FAN:2836rpm TEMP:32.0C 5.157V 11.773V]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
At first I used the IDE cables that was with the controller, and I suspected
them for the problem. Then I found some other ATA133 cables but they
returned the same result.
pciconf output;
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
atapci0 at pci0:9:0: class=0x010485 card=0x4d68105a chip=0x6269105a
rev=0x02 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Promise Technology Inc'
device = 'PDC20271 FastTrak TX2000 EIDE controller'
class = mass storage
subclass = RAID
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Maby a driver problem ?
