No, seems to limited to stupid cables only. Look, I bought a new cable and see what happens: pata_pdc2027x 0000:00:0f.0: PLL input clock 33509 kHz Linux video capture interface: v2.00 ata5: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xf98a17c0 ctl 0xf98a1fda bmdma 0xf98a1000 irq 19 ata6: PATA max UDMA/133 cmd 0xf98a15c0 ctl 0xf98a1dda bmdma 0xf98a1008 irq 19 scsi4 : pata_pdc2027x ata5: CLASSIFY: device 0 50:01 01:00:00 ata5: CLASSIFY: device 1 50:01 01:00:00 ata5.00: ATA-7: Maxtor 6Y160P0, YAR41BW0, max UDMA/133 ata5.00: 320173056 sectors, multi 16: LBA48 ata5.01: ATA-6: WDC WD1200JB-00DUA3, 75.13B75, max UDMA/100 ata5.01: 234441648 sectors, multi 16: LBA48 ata5.00: configured for UDMA/33 ata5.01: configured for UDMA/100 scsi5 : pata_pdc2027x ata6: CLASSIFY: device 0 50:01 01:00:00 ata6: CLASSIFY: device 1 50:01 01:00:00 ata6.00: ATA-6: WDC WD1200JB-00EVA0, 15.05R15, max UDMA/100 ata6.00: 234441648 sectors, multi 16: LBA48 ata6.01: ATA-6: ST3120022A, 8.54, max UDMA/100 ata6.01: 234441648 sectors, multi 16: LBA48 ata6.00: configured for UDMA/100 ata6.01: configured for UDMA/100 I can't believe this sh*t, I tried 3 sets of cables, non of them worked, now I buy a new cable and things get detected at once? *sigh* Thanks for your help all, I really appriciate it... it still looks very weird to me but a fact is, with this new cable things do seem to work.
