Hi! Thanks for the fast reply - but I can't follow. What is the _tuning aspect_ and how is it modified? Andre Hedrick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > There is a problem that it does not downgrade the IO if all you have is > iCRC errors. The threshold is 10 events without other errors and it >

There is a problem that it does not downgrade the IO if all you have is iCRC errors. The threshold is 10 events without other errors and it should skip you from ATA-66 to ATA-44. If you did not enable the tuning aspect of the chipset then do so now. Regards, Andre Hedrick CTO Timpanogas
