Do you mean to say that the problem lies in the Seagate drives, not in the SiI 3112 controller and/or its driver code? I'm seeing SATA as a common component on quite a few motherboards, and am definitely seeing SATA drives in the retail channel. In my experience, all of these pieces work flawlessly under Win2k and XP... would love for them to do the same under Linux. > This is not a fun one to fix! > > This is all I can say for now :-( Why no fun? Why can't you say more? We would really appreciate more specifics when you can. If the problem lies with Seagate, I'd be happy to press the issue with them. --Josh
