ata seek error: should i worry?
under heavy writes, i get this:
hde: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hde: dma_intr: error=0x84 { DriveStatusError BadCRC }
hde: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hde: dma_intr: error=0x84 { DriveStatusError BadCRC }
hde: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hde: dma_intr: error=0x84 { DriveStatusError BadCRC }
i've tried two different drives, two different cables (one that came w/ a
drive and one that came w/ the card - regular ribbons). same problem. this
happens w/o enabling ANY hdparm options.
it doesn't seem to cause any problems. no fs corruption and no file data
corruption.
is this error msg printed whenever there's a dma xfer that needs to be
retried, or is it printed after the retries fail?
thanks in advance!
