Cosmos my friend, FastATA works per case sadly.
It worked on PIO4 ONLY with a speciffic HD of mine (in the past) and with every other HD or CF, PIO3 was the cap. (You can find a detailed thread of mine over EAB).
I never managed to go beyond PIO3 and that's why I decided to replace it with Idefix Express that's easier, and more compatible with all OSes.

Using FastATA MKII and ATA3.driver Ver8.x, every drive I have tested (various sizes and manufacturers) up to 500GB all work perfectly at PIO4...

With my 060 boards you can even put them to PIO5 and they read & write fine but I do prefer to stay at PIO4 to be on the safe side...

(CD/DVD Burners run fine at PIO5 too and I've never had any problems burning discs at PIO5...

Yep, that's why I said... PER CASE!
You're a lucky man Franko if everything works just fine for you.

I used my former FastATA in both 040 and BPPC 060 with the results I previously said.
The driver was the last available and tested it with many HDs and CFs.

FastATA is a nice piece of hardware (although too unstable for my taste).
