Problem with JMicron controller
« on: May 15, 2010, 06:40:07 PM »
I have a JMicron JMB36X Controller with a single SATA II header driving a Seagate 500 GB HD. I intended to use it as temporary storage for video files until I burn them to DVD but once a file is written to the drive its got an archive attribute set and I cannot delete the files. I tried using a command window and using the attrib -a command on single files and I tried changing permissions but each and every file is write protected.

Does anyone know how to fix that?

is it (the drive) possibly  protected in the bios, or software, or jumper setting?

No it looks like it was a driver problem. I updated the driver and I then had full control of the files but after rebooting the card was misbehaving again. Now its time to pull it out and get a better controller I think.
