radx 0 Posted February 3, 2001 I got a HP Omnibook 4150 with the IBM DADA-26480 6.4GB harddrive. Now when i look at hp's webpage there is a bios especially made for win2000, that is installed. After i did a clean installation of win2000. Now i cant get anyother transfer mode than pio mode from this disk. Question, does it support DMA mode? Now i looked at IBMs webpage http://www.storage.ibm.com/techsup/hddtech/dada/dadades.htm It told me this: Interface transfer rate (MB/sec) 33.3 MB/sec Ultra DMA mode-2 16.6 MB/sec PIO mode-4 Meaning? It does? In win2k device manager it seams it does not. Its choosed to be dma if available but still it says PIO mode only.. Any ideas? Thanks Share this post Link to post
