It would appear that on Jul 17, James Wilkinson did say:

# hdparm /dev/hdb /dev/hdd

/dev/hdb:
 HDIO_GET_MULTCOUNT failed: Invalid argument
 IO_support   =  1 (32-bit)
 unmaskirq    =  1 (on)

 readonly     =  0 (off)
 readahead    = 256 (on)

/dev/hdd:
 HDIO_GET_MULTCOUNT failed: Invalid argument
 IO_support   =  1 (32-bit)
 unmaskirq    =  1 (on)
 using_dma    =  1 (on)

If it matters this was with an music cd in both drives.

When next I've a chance to boot FC1, (Maybe tomorrow, err technically
maybe later today, definitely after some sleep...) I'll try hdparm
there as well. 

Thanks
