| |
Hi guys,
Me again, sorry.
Is it possible to make hdparm work with libata? I have some drives that for some reason fall back to lower UDMA settings (like UDMA/44) while the drive is UDMA/100. I blame the way I set-up my raid arrays for this and the bus not being able to handle all the data that goes trough it but that isnt really the case now.
Anyway, I used to be able to force the drive back with using hdparm -X68 -d 1 /dev/sdk But with the new lib_pata drivers I get "Inappropriate iotcl for device" and HD_IO_DRIVE_CMD Input/Output errors.
Or! Is there some other way to force the drive not to failback to lower UDMA settings? (Yep, I know, if this is answer, it's my risk, I cant and wont blame you for destructing my pr0n or severe trauma I suffer from losing data)
