have any insight into these Adaptec controllers? I've fussed with the
setpci latency_timer settings (from Jan Depner's "Installing and
configuring ALSA, JACK, & Ardour..." web site), but still see long
xruns. Trying an IDE drive is not that simple, as I don't have any
drive slots left in the box (I've got 4 SCSI drives setup as a RAID).
So, I'd like to exhaust all possibilities before trying new drive
configurations.
You could beg/borrow/steal a Firewire, USB2 or SATA external drive and try
that. You wouldnt have to destroy anyones data, just record some junk to
it while you ran a latency test.
