And did you enable DMA on you disks (hdparm)?No, didn't. Thanks for this. But when I try hdparm -d /dev/hda I always get using_dma = off (0) instead of enabling/disabling it as the manpage says. Does this point to not being turned on in the bios?
It points to reading the manpage more carefully ;)
hdparm -d doesn't toggle DMA, you have to set it explicitly, ie.
hdparm -d1 /dev/hda
