Hi,
I've got some troubles with sata disks (Maxtor DiamondMax 10 160go) : this
is the second one I use in less than 1 month.
With the first one, I got more and more ofently TIMEOUT - READ_DMA errors
... so I changed it last week (I thought the disk was broken) ! And now,
10 days after installing the _new_ one, I re-get the sames errors. They
appear randomly ...
No log, no debug messages, just TIMEOUT - READ_DMA in dmesg
Is there some tools on FreeBSD to test the SATA controler or the disks ?
Some known bugs in drivers ?
Does anyone get the same problem ?
PS : when error occurs, the disk make a "click" !?!?

Hi Ivan
Sounds like power problem to me. Perhaps there is not enough power for the
drive.
Best advice I could give is not to use Maxtor. They have known problems with
many models and in my opinion are not good hard drives.
