Enable DMA by default (Also a kernel option, and I think this can be done by hdparm also) Using this I get 25MB/sec plus with my UDMA-66 drive.
Hi Muzh, Thanks for the response. I did in fact have dma set in my kernel, but it was helpful to see your 25MB/sec figure for purposes of ccomparison. This led me to do some google searching and I found a long discssion between linus and other kernel gurus in the past couple of months concerning problems with udma 3/4/5 and certain drives - including my DTLA. I did not understand everything I read, but I think that the bottom line is that I am going to have await some code changes before I get full speed.
