Hi, I've been using libata-tj for a couple of days and for now it's working without problem, my SI-3112 is finally working :) Thanks ! I've noticed these errors while trying to issue some SMART commands to the SATA drive : > May 16 00:28:33 aneto kernel: ata3: soft resetting port > May 16 00:28:33 aneto kernel: ata3: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 310) > May 16 00:28:33 aneto kernel: ata3.00: configured for UDMA/100 > May 16 00:28:33 aneto kernel: ata3: EH complete > May 16 00:28:33 aneto kernel: ata3.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x1 frozen > May 16 00:28:33 aneto kernel: ata3.00: tag 0 cmd 0xb0 Emask 0x2 stat 0x51 err 0x4 (HSM violation) > May 16 00:28:33 aneto kernel: ata3.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x40) > May 16 00:28:33 aneto kernel: ata3.00: revalidation failed (errno=-5) > May 16 00:28:33 aneto kernel: ata3: failed to recover some devices, retrying in 5 secs > May 16 00:28:39 aneto kernel: ata3: soft resetting port > May 16 00:28:39 aneto kernel: ata3: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 310) > May 16 00:28:39 aneto kernel: ata3.00: configured for UDMA/100 > May 16 00:28:39 aneto kernel: ata3: EH complete smartd then entered in a "D" state for some time.
