Description: Well, I'm using Mandrake 9.2. I have two drives hooked up to it, a 160, and a 15er. They seem to work fine under linux (I use the 160 as a place to share linux and windows files). However, in Mandrake 10.0, it failed to see my SCSI device, so I had to use 9.2 instead (I refused to install to anything other then a 15er).

That is to say, Mandrake 10.0 didn't see a thing, but 9.2 recognized it easily.

Performance seems to be the same as in Windows.

The 2 SATA connectors work on Fedora Core 2, with the above kernel, but the PATA connector (standard ATA/133 connector) doesn't work.

This might change in the future and it appears to be getting some attention from the kernel people. Notice that the PATA still won't support ATAPI (and I assume ARMD) devices. Its only for hard drives
