Re: dma problems with my harddrive (again)

I found time to test two of my harddrives with smart,


Main problems concern if I'm not wrong the power on and the DMA.
So what I'd like to know is that if it is a harddrive problem
or another thing (mainly DMA, cables, power supply).

Thank you in advance for taking time.

here are the logs from smartmontools:
