you can force enable DMA - which chipset are you using? It seems to work here,
according to idestatus.

Yes, and accessing of files is also very slow - it takes a while to bring up
folder-contentsm, and it takes a long time for MediaPlayer before playback
starts (new MediaPlayer from MediaKit Beta, which doesn't read the entire
file), and then after 2-3 secs smooth playing, it takes a while to bring up the
next part...

don't think so...
But I get weird errors in Windows sometimes ("this file has been edited
externally and cannot be deleted" or sth like that).

Whoa?! Where can I get it? Hope it's NT-compatible? :)
With write-support, I could finally format my data-disk with BFS and have my
MP3s/OGGs attributed, smooth playback etc...
