Dmitry,

	Which is the chipset of your motherboard?
	I suspect it´s a problem with ICH5 drivers.
	Whith windowz OS they perform identical.

|I can't reproduce this. On a dual Xeon server with 2 PATA Seagate

|slave on the 1st channel, reading them with dd procuces this:
|
|%dd if=/dev/ad0 of=/dev/null bs=1m count=20
|20+0 records in
|20+0 records out
|20971520 bytes transferred in 0.378772 secs (55367171 bytes/secs)
|%dd if=/dev/ad2 of=/dev/null bs=1m count=20
|20+0 records in
|20+0 records out
|20971520 bytes transferred in 0.364243 secs (57575625 bytes/secs)
|
|Please let me know if there is anything else I shall try to reproduce
|the problem.
