>> it says it's sata like that:

>> ad10: 305244MB <SAMSUNG HD321KJ CP100-10> at ata5-master SATA300
>> ad12: 305245MB <SAMSUNG HD321KJ CP100-10> at ata6-master SATA300
>> ad14: 305245MB <SAMSUNG HD321KJ CP100-10> at ata7-master SATA300
>> ad18: 476940MB <SAMSUNG HD501LJ CR100-12> at ata9-master SATA300
>> ad20: 476940MB <SAMSUNG HD501LJ CR100-12> at ata10-master SATA300

>>no. but if it recognizes it as ATA-33 or like this - something is wrong.

Exactly my problem.  It says
ad4: DMA limited to UDMA33, device found non-ATA66 cable
ad4: 152587MB <SAMSUNG HE160HJ JF800-24> at ata2-master UDMA33
ad6: DMA limited to UDMA33, device found non-ATA66 cable
ad6: 152587MB <SAMSUNG HE160HJ JF800-24> at ata3-master UDMA33

Weird.  What would cause this ??
