Dear all,
do you think the issue below will be resolved in the near future ? If
not I would better buy a new sata stand-a-lone card which is known to
work flawlessly (including error corrections) - which one ??
I upgraded (1 month ago) to using 2 sata disks (both seagate drives
ST3400832AS and ST3750640AS) on this asus a7v8x on-board promise fastrak
376 (PDC20376) controller.
However, as soon as I do a lot of io (cp some
G of files, or dd if=/dev/sdx of=/dev/null reads) I get swamped in
ata1: translated ATA stat/err 0x51/0c to SCSI SK/ASC/ASCQ 0xb/00/00
ata1: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
ata1: error=0x0c { DriveStatusError }
ata2: translated ATA stat/err 0x51/0c to SCSI SK/ASC/ASCQ 0xb/00/00
ata2: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
ata2: error=0x0c { DriveStatusError }
...
messages. For that it is enough to do it on a single drive or copy from
drive to drive. This is on kernel 2.6.18.1.
Can anyone translate these dubious error messages to me ?
Here are more details about the system:
- the sata_promise driver version 1.04 is used
- relevant dmesg output:
libata version 2.00 loaded.
