Re: UDMA on microA1

@Christopher Follett If I recall, this was back in the days of AmigaOS 4.0 Pre-Release Update 4. The drivers that came with that release were supposed to allow UDMA modes, but some of us users who had MicroA1 and Maxtor 40GB hard drives encountered issues.

Re: UDMA on microA1

I have owned a MicroA1-C since the end of 2004. A long time ago Stéphane Guillard (sg2) fixed some issues we were having with UDMA on the Maxtor hard drives.

Re: Drag issue

Please note that this freeze happened while I was still using AmigaOS 4.1 Update 4. [/i] I tried again today to recreate the system freeze that I encountered the evening I was preparing for my upgrade to AmigaOS 4.1 Update 5. Unfortunately, I cannot duplicate this freeze.
