What kind of problems are there with cable select?  I
have been running my HD so configured and not had any
problems that "seem" to be so related.

However, that may not be true.  I have not had boot
problems (which is what I would expect).  

Maybe I should pull out my drives and jumper them? 
Are the problems on older MD? (I am running a
relatively new MB: ASUS A7N8X-Deluxe.)

Thanks
