Hi,
I reported this also for 2.6.20 kernel.
new libata with controller nVidia CK804 initializes the disk in DMA/33,
with with 2.6.19.5 and previous the disk is correctly inizialized in
DMA/100.
Tha cable is OK, and with older kernels the disks runs without troubles.
The sistem has two sata disks on nvidia CK804 controllers, and then a disk
as primary master, and a dvd writer (DMA/33) as secondary master)
here is lspci -vxxx
