When I try to get dma to work with my hard drive, I get the following error:

Does anyone know why this might happen? It's a brand new drive, there's no reason this shouldn't work...




What version of hdparm are you using?  What version of Debian?
What make and model is the drive?  What mobo/chipset do you have?
