I am seeing some weird behavior with my FFS partition attached to the TF1260 when viewing drive information through Sysinfo. Sysinfo shows no real drive information and seems to lockup the program when selecting my FFS partition. My PFS3 partitions seem to display fine, very strange. Is this a known issue or maybe some partition issue in HDToolbox? What is the recommended Mask value and other settings for the ehide.device and TF1260 controller?

OS3.2.1 (same issue observed with 3.2)
ehide.device v1.1
16Gb Sandisk CF
2Gb partition
FFS 47.4
Direct SCSI Transfer - off
Mask: 0x7FFFFFFE
MaxTransfer: 0x1FE00

Got the same problem. It has something to do with the blocksize. Up to 1024 works. All above not.

Sounds like something @erique might have an idea about.

can confirm this,
if blocksize is set to 4096 - Sysinfo can't measure speed for TF IDE, exit doesn't work also - only reboot helps to quit.. Works fine otherwise

Hi Jehuty,

You are spot on, changed blocksize to 1024 and no more issues with Sysinfo.

Same for me, if I set block size above 2048 sysinfo crashes when trying to test.

Can also confirm the same issue with 3.2.2 and systeminfo 4.4.
