<question id="udma-icrc">

<para>What are <errorname>UDMA ICRC</errorname> errors, and
|

how do I fix them?</para>

</question>
|

|
||||
<answer>
|
||||
<para>The &man.ata.4; driver reports <errorname>UDMA
|
||||
ICRC</errorname> errors when a DMA transfer to or from a drive
|
||||
is corrupted. The driver will retry the operation a few
|
||||
times. Should the retries fail, it will switch from DMA to
|
||||
the slower PIO mode of communication with the device.</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>The problem can be caused by many factors, although
|
||||
perhaps the most common cause is faulty or incorrect
|
||||
cabling. Check that the ATA cables are undamaged and rated
|
||||
for the Ultra DMA mode in use. If you are using
|
||||
removable drive trays, they must also be compatible. Be
|
||||
sure that all connections are making good contact. Problems
|
||||
have also been noticed when an old drive is installed on the
|
||||
same ATA channel as an Ultra DMA 66 (or faster)
|
||||
drive. Lastly, these errors can indicate that the drive is
|
||||
failing. Most drive vendors provide testing software for
|
||||
their drives, so test your drive, and, if necessary, back up
|
||||
your data and replace it.</para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>The &man.atacontrol.8; utility can be used to show and
|
||||
select the DMA or PIO modes used for each ATA device. In
|
||||
particular, <command>atacontrol mode
|
||||
<replaceable>channel</replaceable></command> will show the
|
||||
modes in use on a particular ATA channel, where the primary
|
||||
channel is numbered 0, and so on.</para>
