Storage Solutions Sata UDMA issue

[CA50]

I have 3 sata drives, 2 HDD and 1 ODD. recently i upgraded my motherboard to abit ip35-pro, now i have seen that the hdd speeds have dropped. previously the my 2HDDs were running at UDMA 6, whereas now they are running at UDMA 5.

Again check my system details using sisoft sandra gave this: see pics

Are my sata drives running at sata 1.0 i.e. at 1.5 gbps:S

Please enlighten me::huh:

Which board you were using earlier. I'm also on P35 based board (Asus P5Kc) and all my HDDs are running on UDMA5 mode.

Why not switch to AHCI and get rid of the UDMA nonsense?

AHCI is not supported under xp

ahci will work under xp imo..

ahci drivers has to be installed in xp prior to changing to ahci mode under bios. Surely your mobo must come with ahci drivers for xp imo.
