Hi
I have a solution to this problem. 1) HD cable needs to be plugged into the SATA1 socket 2) You need to incorporate the VIA SerialATA drivers into WinXP I386 folder, and then re-burn the XP installation
CD.(Slipstream). Download a file or two from this source: (GDragoN post) Google: SlipVIASata.rar
Actually, update: Slipviasata.rar has been removed from the source I quoted. Would be happy to send a copy to anyone who e=mails me: ian.clegg@ntlworld.com
add few lines from Info.txt and copy sys_ files in I386 folder.
3) Copy ypur XP disc to drive C. Create folder and name it XP. Copy all the files over. 4) Find the following files in C:\XP and copy/paste the following four sections of code into TXTSETUP.SIF and SAVE.
Edit: TXTSETUP.SIF Add in following sections.
[SourceDisksFiles] viapdsk.sys = 1,,,,,,4_,4,1,,,1,4 viasraid.sys = 1,,,,,,4_,4,1,,,1,4
[HardwareIdsDatabase] PCI\VEN_1106&DEV_3149 = "viasraid" PCI\VEN_1106&DEV_4149 = "viapdsk"
[SCSI.load] viasraid = viasraid.sys,4 viapdsk = viapdsk.sys,4
[SCSI] viapdsk = "VIA ATA/ATAPI Host Controller" viasraid = "VIA Serial ATA RAID Controller"
Copy: *.sy_ to I386 folder

5) Copy the 2 sy_ files to I386 folder
6) Create the bootable CD (credit to: Trinidad and Tobago Computer Society/Slipstreaming with Windows XP Service Pack 2): [ Use ISO Buster to extract the boot loader from the original Windows XP CD:
Insert the Windows XP CD into the CD-ROM drive. Start ISO Buster. It should automatically open the CD. Click on: Bootable CD
Right-click on: Microsoft Corporation.img. A menu will pop up. Select Extract Microsoft Corporation.img. Extract Microsoft Corporation.img to the folder on the hard drive where the Windows XP files are stored. (e.g. C:\XP)
7) Start Nero Burning ROM
Select CD from the drop-down box in the New Compilation window if it is not already selected. Select: CD-ROM (Boot) in the New Compilation window. (Scroll down the list).
Click on the Boot tab. Select Image file Use the BROWSE button to locate the Microsoft Corporation.img file. (e.g. C:\XPHOMECD) Enable Expert Settings. Select: No Emulation. Change the Number of loaded sectors to 4
Under the iso tab select (tick) everything. File name lenght=Max of 31 chars Format Mode1 Character set Iso 9660
Click on the Volume Label tab. The Volume Label should be the same as the original Windows XP CD.(e.g. WXHCCP_EN for Windows XP Home Edition)
Click the New button. In the File Browser select all files (and folders) from the folder that contains the slipstreamed XP files.(e.g.
C:\XPHOMECD). Drag these files and folders and and drop them into the ISO1 window. Insert the blank CD-R into the CD-burner. Make sure the correct burner is selected. The name/model number of the burner should been shown where "Image Recorder" is
shown in the screenshot.
If the drop box contains "Image Recorder" then click it and select the name of the burner. If "Image Recorder" is the only
choice then there is no burner available. Click on Recorder on the menu bar.
Select Burn Compilation.
The following options should be automatically selected: Write, Finalize CD (No further writing possible!), Disc-at-once. If
they are not selected, select them now. Buffer underrun protection will only be selected if the burner supports it. Click the Burn button. "Burn time" depends on the speed selected. Suggested speed range: 12X to 20X. The CD can be burn at faster speeds (if the
burner supports it) but it may suffer reliability problems if burned at speeds above 20X.
Nero may throttle the speed of the burner regardless of the speed selected by the user. e.g. user selects 16X burn speed but
nero burns at 8X.
[ Back to Top of page ]
Test the final CD: Quick test:
Insert the slipstreamed CD into the CD-ROM drive/burner. If "Autorun" is enabled, the "Microsoft Windows XP" welcome screen
should pop up.
7) Boot your new system with the new CD. Ignore the press f6 option.
Sorry to be so long-winded but this worked a treat for me. Big thanks to all the people who i have given credit to.

http://www.hollants.com/external_usb_controller_chips.html Onnto USB2.0/Firewire400 3.5 Zoll Alu-Gehäuse (SC-M12CI) http://board.gulli.com/thread/348391-review-test-externes-35-hd-gehaeuse-onnto-sc-m12ci/

But fear not -- there is at least one controller chip that, although reporting control pin timeouts as well, performs correctly: the Cypress CY7C68300 passed all my tests successfully, without messing up the filesystem :) It might not have IEEE1394b and it's not the fastest USB2.0 controller chip, but it's fast and safe, which should be your primary interest.
There are several 3,5" cases with this chip, but unfortunately the case manufacturers usually don't mention the chip type, not even in the "technical specs". Based on the c't article, I can give you two names however:
* Onnto SC-M12CI -- USB2.0/IEEE1394a combo, my recommendation! I'm very satisfied with this one, it's nice, it's fast, it's silent :)
* CS-Glory CS-338
The CY7C68300 also appears in the "Sarotech MyBox 5,25", but as the name suggests, that's a larger case originally intended for external CD/DVD drives.
To close, I still owe you the question as to what my "stress tests" under Linux actually were. In order to reproduce the phenomena described above, you should:
