Hi all...
I'm getting again my friendly DRDY errors, this time on the new disk I got
to replace the old one (that fortunately was still under warranty...).
This is a brand new disk, it came perfectly packaged...
Now it is not a Seagate, but a WD:
Note that DRDY is not an error:

But moreover, for Serial ATA, timeouts are generally due to platform
problems, irq problems, or driver problems. When we see timeouts, we
generally do not look at the hard drive as the primary cause.
Have you gone through the debugging process for irq problems -- turning
off ACPI, noapic, etc.?
