hi folks,

I've got a Maxtor fireball 3 ( 2f040j0) -----> http://www.maxtor.com/en/support/pro...ll_3/index.htm .
I know it is capable of UDMA 6 ( ATA 133) but can't enable it!!
It keeps on running at UDMA 5. I've looked at the bios, controlled the cable, but I haven't figured out a solution.... any tips?

thanks, :)

P.S. I've got several partions on my hard drive ;
46 MB FAT 32 ( for boot loader)
22 GB NTFS ( WinXP sp1)
15 GB Linux ext2 ( LINUX Mandrake 9.2) + 300MBswap
