Operating 2 SATA drives. They are identical 250GB Seagate SATA2 drives
operating in SATA1 configuration speed (motherboard limitation), and I'm
using the stepdown to SATA1 jumper on both SATA drives. Bios remaps these
to primary ide master/slave, nothing physically on primary ide Also using a
USB external drive. Each physical drive has a partition that I direct as
target for imaging, primarily the boot partion image as source (on SATA1).
Imaging and verifcation are always successful on the USB drive.
Verification rarely fails on the 1st SATA drive (master). Verification
always fails on the 2nd SATA drive (slave). The imaging program also has an
asset to review the internal of the image file, verify, and export that
image file. I can export a previously verified image from SATA1 to SATA2,
but, that exported image fails verification afterwards. When I source the
image file from the USB drive and export to the SATA2 drive, then verify,
that verification is successful. The time to make the same image is
a-l-w-a-y-s less when targeted at the SATA2 drive.
I have to use the SATAs as mapped ide as to allow Millenium and 98SE to run.
They won't work on the SATA controller bios configuration.
What's going on regarding SATA2, and is there a fix?

CDOs are how we got here.
A modified version, new taxes in the future, is how Congress will get us
out?
