i have the same issue on brand new 200gb ata maxtor hard drive. i had the same issue on 5.2.1, but when i upgraded to 5.3 i decided to turn on ata dma but after 9 days of uptime it froze..no logs, whatever...so i turned ata dma off for now, and i will stay and watch what will happen..
That's very helpful, thank you. The behaviour you describe - machine freezing - is exactly what I have experienced. I'm feeling vaguely optimistic now :-)
but there should be some other fix, because i don't want to keep my disc in pio mode :/
Absolutely. But I guess, since I'm not going to try to produce a fix myself, I can't whinge too loudly. A workaround is what I need right now and I hope you've confirmed that this is one.
