There is a general problem with energy-saving drives that controllers don't understand them. Typically the drive decides to go into some power-saving mode, the controller wants to do some operation, the drive takes too long to come ready, the controller decides the drive has gone away. You have to persuade the controller to wait longer for the drive to come ready, and/or persuade the drive to stay awake. This isn't necessarily easy, eg the controller's ready wait may not be programmable. (Or avoid such drives like the plague, life's too short). -- Bob Bishop r...@gid.co.uk _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
