I just noticed this while connecting a second drive and moving data from sdb to sda. Copying stuff from the internal ide-controller (nvidia) to sda does not produce any errors. I've also tried diffrent cables without any luck. Kernel is 2.6.19.2 This is what dmesg pukes out: EXT3 FS on sdb1, internal journal EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x2400000 action 0x0 ata1.00: (BMDMA stat 0x60) ata1.00: tag 0 cmd 0x35 Emask 0x1 stat 0x51 err 0x4 (device error) ata1: EH complete SCSI device sda: 488397168 512-byte hdwr sectors (250059 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sda: drive cache: write back ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x2400000 action 0x0 ata1.00: (BMDMA stat 0x60) ata1.00: tag 0 cmd 0x35 Emask 0x1 stat 0x51 err 0x4 (device error) ata1: EH complete SCSI device sda: 488397168 512-byte hdwr sectors (250059 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sda: drive cache: write back ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x2400000 action 0x2 frozen ata1.00: (BMDMA stat 0x61) ata1.00: tag 0 cmd 0x35 Emask 0x4 stat 0x40 err 0x0 (timeout) ata1: port is slow to respond, please be patient (Status 0xd1) ata1: port failed to respond (30 secs, Status 0xd1) ata1: soft resetting port ata1: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 310) ata1.00: configured for UDMA/100 ata1: EH complete SCSI device sda: 488397168 512-byte hdwr sectors (250059 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sda: drive cache: write back ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x2400000 action 0x2 frozen ata1.00: (BMDMA stat 0x61) ata1.00: tag 0 cmd 0x35 Emask 0x4 stat 0x40 err 0x0 (timeout) ata1: port is slow to respond, please be patient (Status 0xd1) ata1: port failed to respond (30 secs, Status 0xd1) ata1: soft resetting port ata1: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 310) ata1.00: configured for UDMA/100 ata1: EH complete SCSI device sda: 488397168 512-byte hdwr sectors (250059 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sda: drive cache: write back ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x2400000 action 0x2 frozen ata1.00: (BMDMA stat 0x61) ata1.00: tag 0 cmd 0x35 Emask 0x4 stat 0x40 err 0x0 (timeout) ata1: port is slow to respond, please be patient (Status 0xd1) ata1: port failed to respond (30 secs, Status 0xd1) ata1: soft resetting port ata1: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 310) ata1.00: configured for UDMA/100 ata1: EH complete SCSI device sda: 488397168 512-byte hdwr sectors (250059 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sda: drive cache: write back ata1.00: limiting speed to UDMA/66 ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x2400000 action 0x2 frozen ata1.00: (BMDMA stat 0x61) ata1.00: tag 0 cmd 0x35 Emask 0x4 stat 0x40 err 0x0 (timeout) ata1: port is slow to respond, please be patient (Status 0xd1) ata1: port failed to respond (30 secs, Status 0xd1) ata1: soft resetting port ata1: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 310) ata1.00: configured for UDMA/66 ata1: EH complete SCSI device sda: 488397168 512-byte hdwr sectors (250059 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sda: drive cache: write back ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x2400000 action 0x0 ata1.00: (BMDMA stat 0x60) ata1.00: tag 0 cmd 0x35 Emask 0x1 stat 0x51 err 0x4 (device error) ata1: EH complete SCSI device sda: 488397168 512-byte hdwr sectors (250059 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sda: drive cache: write back ata1.00: limiting speed to UDMA/44 ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x2400000 action 0x2 frozen ata1.00: (BMDMA stat 0x61) ata1.00: tag 0 cmd 0x35 Emask 0x4 stat 0x40 err 0x0 (timeout) ata1: port is slow to respond, please be patient (Status 0xd1) ata1: port failed to respond (30 secs, Status 0xd1) ata1: soft resetting port ata1: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 310) ata1.00: configured for UDMA/44 ata1: EH complete SCSI device sda: 488397168 512-byte hdwr sectors (250059 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sda: drive cache: write back ata1.00: limiting speed to UDMA/33 ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x2400000 action 0x2 frozen ata1.00: (BMDMA stat 0x61) ata1.00: tag 0 cmd 0x35 Emask 0x4 stat 0x40 err 0x0 (timeout) ata1: port is slow to respond, please be patient (Status 0xd1) ata1: port failed to respond (30 secs, Status 0xd1) ata1: soft resetting port ata1: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 310) ata1.00: configured for UDMA/33 ata1: EH complete SCSI device sda: 488397168 512-byte hdwr sectors (250059 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00 SCSI device sda: drive cache: write back 01:09.0 Mass storage controller: Silicon Image, Inc.
