SETFEATURES SET TRANSFER MODE taskqueue timeout.. Error occuring constantly.. Please help!!
Hi, I have a PC/box with 5 disks in it that I am using as a fileserver and I recently upgraded some hardware and installed FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE. Previously I had a RAID PATA IDE controller on the motherboard (was not using RAID functionality though), but I when I upgraded I had to use a PCI IDE controller, due to the lack of PATA ports on the new motherboard. Now when I am attempting to write files, or do anything more than just browse filesystems on the drives ad4-ad7, I get multiple occurrences of the errors below. After these errors occur the kernel panics and I need to perform a hard reset to get the server back up again.

I've changed the IDE cables and the PATA controller and it is still not making any difference. I also added hw.ata.ata_dma=0 to /boot/loader.conf as recommended in a wiki I came across, but if anything it made the issue even worse. Can someone please help? Thanks, Kristian
