Subject: Remove Asus EEE UDMA/33 limitation.
Date: Fri, 2 May 2008 11:44:58 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080502154458.GA10567@codemonkey.org.uk> (raw)
The Asus Eee PC prints this during bootup..
ata2.00: limited to UDMA/33 due to 40-wire cable
Which is unfortunate, as it has..
ata2.00: ATA-4: SILICONMOTION SM223AC, , max UDMA/66
I believe there actually is no cable, and the flash is directly
connected to the controller.
[root@eee ~]# hdparm -t /dev/sda
/dev/sda:
Timing buffered disk reads: 64 MB in 3.08 seconds = 20.76 MB/sec
With the patch below it returns..
/dev/sda:
Timing buffered disk reads: 76 MB in 3.04 seconds = 25.04 MB/sec
