I have a Samsung Spinpoint M9T ST1500LM006, it is a SATA III (6gb/s) drive. I want to limit it to SATA I, what software lets me do this? |

I don't think there's a software for that. If I remember well, there were a few drives with the possibility of limit it with a jumper. But on these new drives, I don't think that's possible anymore. |

The set max udma mode setting in MHDD can't do it? The drive has no jumper settings, but the drive is downward compatible with SATA II and SATA I which means there must be someway to force it into either mode. |

Original Playstation 3 models have trouble with SATA II and SATA III where the system will not boot properly sometimes. It's necessary that I force the drive in SATA I so I'm not gambling whether or not my console will start properly. |

I've done some testing with the PAID LICENSED version of SHT and IT DOES WORK and IT DOES SURVIVE THE POWER OFF/ON : Can you share this software, or do you know of any software that's very similar? I have no idea where to find SHT, I only speak English so it's hard to sift through these sites. |

ISTR that Ace's blog article stated that all one needed to do to repair a damaged FIPS was to write the FIPS header, fill the module with zeros and then write a valid checksum at the end. I could be wrong, though. |
