No other devices on the scsi bus.
The SE jumper is not installed. Tried with/without - once had an older
IBM scsi disk where the docs had the definition on one pin reverted :-
I had it jumpered as ID2; making it ID0, for some reason it properly
negotiates as a 160 device, at 80MHz, of cause.
I still get only 34.4 MB/s, though (misspelled the speed in first post).
Tried forcing 80MB/s, disabling domain validation, and forcing
termination on the 29160, no change.
Been thinking if IBM at some point sold some DDYS's as pure UW 40MB/s
disks, to satisfy the market...
Out of ideas, except flashing the controller. Latest BIOS should do some
BIOS optimizations and device order stuff, whatever that means.
