Hmm - 36 inch cable, makes me wonder if that is what is causing the
problem in UDMA133 mode. IIRC the ATA spec says 18 inches, but most
cables seem to be ok at 24 inches. 36 inches may just be tipping things
over the edge...
Oh sorry I should have mentioned that my testing was done with standard
length cables and there was still all the problems. I just got the 36
inch for the final placement of the drives, and there seems to be no
change when I switch the cables.
I'm glad that it looks like running it at 100 will solve this. Thanks
for the replies. I was probably going to go through all the hassle of
getting an Asus board to replace this because I was almost certain it
was hardware, but I don't think it's worth it as long as this works :)
