I have used Maxtor "SATA" drives that require the O/S to do a "SET FEATURES :: UDMA_MODE" command on them before they will operate reliably. This despite the SATA spec stating clearly that such a command should/will have no effect.
I suppose libata does this already, but just in case not.. Something simple to check up on. -- Mark Lord (hdparm keeper & the original "Linux IDE Guy")
