Hi all,
Afther upgrading our system to ICH9 running in ahci mode.
Kernel starts to report sata exceptions. The disc is brand new (tested for 5 days didn't show any of these) afther going to production it started to report these errors:

the kernel is 2.6.18-53.el5.028stab051.1, with pae config the motherboard is an Intel with G33 express chipset


while googling i found this thread on lkm ( http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-ide@vger.kernel.org/msg136 58.html)
so maybe it's just ahci driver fault but I'm not so fast to testing it on a production system

I'm thinking about disabling sata2 on that disc and hopefully disabling NCQ and mitigating this problem. Anyone has come against something similar ?

Any pointers will be appreciated.
