notes Notes

The original CMD640 has data corruption bugs, some of which remained in CMD646. The data corruption bug is similar to the bug affecting the contemporaneous PC Tech (a subsidiary of Zeos) RZ1000 chipset. Both chipsets were used on a number of motherboards, including those from Intel.

Мodern operating systems have a workaround for this bug by prohibiting aggressive acceleration mode and losing about 10% of the performance.
