> I don't know any others offhand Word is that nforce4 plus Maxtor or Hitachi disks gives data corruption. Nforce4 plus Seagate is said to be okay.
http://forums.nvidia.com/lofiversion/index.php?t8171.html I have nforce4-ultra with 4 Seagate 7200.8 SATA drives and have not observed any data corruption. I have have copied many multi-GB files from one disk to another, and afterwards cmp(1) says they are identical. I picked the nforce4-ultra because the other AMD64 chipsets did not have NCQ. I have not had any problems with the nf4 chipset. (But then I don't have any Maxtor or Hitachi disks hooked to it.) On the other hand, I *have* seen data problems with a Maxtor PATA drive on NetBSD/alpha (not a nforce4 chipset, obviously). Read the same sector three times and get three different results. _______________________________________________ freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hardware To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
