So it looks like the adapter does not like speeds above 1.5Gbps, at least with pmp/fbs... When connecting a regular 3 or 6 gbps HDD (sata-2 or sata-3), do you get higher speeds ? So the temporary workaround is to use "libata.force=2:1.5Gbps" on the kernel command line. For a better fix, we need to figure out why higher speeds do not work... Difficult one. Let me have another look at the specs & driver again. Might take some time though. -- Damien Le Moal Western Digital Research
