In the mean time how could I decrease the UDMA setting so it operates at a lower speed?


Use atacontrol(8):

# atacontrol mode 0
Master = UDMA66
Slave  = BIOSPIO

# atacontrol mode 0 udma33 biospio

# atacontrol mode 0
Master = UDMA33
Slave = BIOSPIO

It probably will be a few days before I get to stop by the computer store.

Most lines are simply warnings, but there area a few errors. This is just a backup drive (ie every X number of hours backup some data from my primary drive) so it's not too much of a problem to slow it down temporarily.

They are warnings, but a UDMA speed mismatch can bite you when you least expect it :)
