how to fix that

I know that can be fixed with PC-3000. I don't know if other utilities can fix this problem.

Did you try it? JD - SATA model, if we try use SiI3112A to access drive firmware it's impossible - something cut vendor specific command.

So we can get trouble here...

Hi,

I 've got a bridge board to attach SATA drive to PC3k. It works with WD, but extremely slow, and doesn't work with maxtor. I'm examining the problem and in case I find something I let U know.

Very funny, what acelab itself say what they have trouble with SATA WD, but SATA Maxtor work perfectly ;)

Not all bridge can help ;)

Hi,

They recommended Granitedigital's bridge, I ordered, I got it, but doesn't work perfectly. I am trying factory mode commands in a debugger and there are strange things happening...
WD works just slow, really very ... slow.

By the way I need modules for WD 2500JD too.
maybe 2500JB would help as well.
