Do these problems still exist? ata100 is 'current days'. :) ata100 is not ata100 thru _all_ ata100 'standard' systems along with other problems by chipset oems, mainboard oems, hd oems, wd among. when in doubt, ask, search... i recall civ's comments. have on this system in oos archives. problem of searching, do not have a good branching filter for msbsos. could run in linux if nothing pops up for you and their is desire need. wmrtgt. mbs. do trust wd to know if they have an ata100 interface problem. trust it to be a problem they are working on. no sales in linux is not good, tho they may not admit openly to it. they will not stay 'non-compatible'. irc, search zdnet site for article. eweek ran it. serveral zdnet news list ran links to wd/ata100/?linux?. peace out, rocky. tc,hago. g . -- think green... save a tree, save a life, save time, save bandwidth, save storage. send email, text/plain - disable pgp/gpg/geek code =+= if you are proud to be an american, then buy "made in america".
