Hello,
I have very strange problem with my FreeBSD box and Promise PDC20579
SATA controller:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:7:0: class=0x010400 card=0x3574105a chip=0x3574105a
rev=0x02 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Promise Technology Inc'
device = 'Promise SATAII150 579 (tm) IDE Controller'
class = mass storage
subclass = RAID
ad4: 381554MB <ST3400832AS/3.02> [775221/16/63] at ata2-master SATA150
Problem is, that every HDD connected to this controller is corrupting
data. For example: I copy good tar.gz archive to this drive, and if I do
decompression immediately after copying, there is no problem, but if I
wait for example 10 minutes, then decompression ends with CRC error:
box# gzip -d ./2005-09-11.tar.gz
gzip: ./2005-09-11.tar.gz: invalid compressed data--crc error
gzip: ./2005-09-11.tar.gz: invalid compressed data--length error
I know, that problem is not in HDD or CPU/RAM, but in controller. Could
it be a driver problem or not? I tried to turn off soft-updates, but
with no change. I have no any ideas what to do or what to try.
Thanks a lot for any answer or opinion.
Tomas Randa
