    Hi,

    I've got a new machine and don't think I'm getting all
    the speed out of it
    that I should be. Any hints/ideas for what I can do
    to make the most of my
    new hardware?

    FreeBSD 5.4-Release
    Shuttle SN25P
    Nvidia NForce 4 with SATA 150
    WD Raptor HD

    I ran atacontrol and it reports:
    # atacontrol list
    ATA channel 0:
        Master: ad0 <Maxtor 6Y160P0/YAR41BW0> ATA/ATAPI
    revision 7
        Slave: acd0 <SONY DVD RW DRU-510A/1.0c> ATA/ATAPI
    revision 6
    ATA channel 1:
        Master: no device present
        Slave: no device present
    ATA channel 2:
        Master: no device present
        Slave: no device present
    ATA channel 3:
        Master: ad6 <WDC WD740GD-00FLA2/31.08F31> Serial
    ATA v1.0
        Slave: no device present
    ATA channel 4:
        Master: no device present
        Slave: no device present
    ATA channel 5:
        Master: no device present
        Slave: no device present
    # atacontrol mode 3
    Master = UDMA33
    Slave = BIOSPIO

    It looks like the standard IDE port is being detected
    as the nForce4 but the
    SATA controllers aren't - they just get labelled
    "GENERIC". Check it out
    below.
    A verbose dmesg reports:
