Hi, so far there is nothing to complain. NCQ seems to work. syncing portage, installing stuff, cp'ing around stuff. No errors in dmesg, data is intact. So I would like to thank everybody involved for your time you spent on my problems. Thank you very much. You made me a very happy citizen :) Glück auf, Volker -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
