    Sorry - little off-topic. I can't find the clean answer anywhere.
    I use KT7A-RAID, with one disc connected to HTP370, and the other to
    standard on-board controller.

    I've seen comments saying that the bug causes possible corruption of large
    files being copied between disks on different IDE channels. Does it hit
    the situation when I'm coping files between the disk on, say, ide0 and the
    one connected to HPT370 ?
    I can't see any article saying what is this bug _in_details_ :(
