The WD website at http://www.wdc.com/products/Products.asp?DriveID=5&Lang=1 says, among other things: Interface: Ultra ATA/100 Mode 5 Ultra ATA100.0 MB/s Mode 4 Ultra ATA66.6 MB/s Mode 2 Ultra ATA33.3 MB/s Mode 4 PIO16.6 MB/s Mode 2 multi-word DMA16.6 MB/s Does this help answer your question? I didn't do anything outside of a normal stock installation to turn DMA support on or off. > > If so, what kind of motherboard and/or IDE controller cards are you > using? Motherboard: Soyo Dragon - AMD Socket-A Base Via KT266 ATX CPU: AMD 1400 Thunderbird RAM: 256K 266-DDR /dev/hdb1 is 20GB fsck has now been running for 28 consecutive hours, and the numbering of the inodes suggests it has "fixed" 60,000 of them now. Maybe I can get a world record! How many inodes would one 20G partition have? I wonder what order of magnitude of time it might take for fsck to finish? -- -Levi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
