  "textContent": "[ **Atariscne.org - News** ] DMA Bliss v0.2\n\nNearly exactly a year ago, Nerve / Ephidrena released DMA Bliss v0.1 to address the infamous STE DMA problem: https://atariscne.org/news/index.php/ste-bad-dma-atariscne-org-testing-a-software-fix. Around that time I was playing with the idea of creating something similar for a separate list of issues I had found in HD Driver. Seeing Nerve's work being open sourced was the push in the right direction however I was very busy and additionally, around that time HD Driver 12.70 was released which fixed _most_ of the issues, taking steam from my motivation to look at it again. Well, one year later still seeing the IDE I/O rate crippled I decided to take a look after all: https://github.com/mikrosk/hddriver-patch/releases/tag/v0.2. This patch dramatically improves HD Driver's I/O on Atari IDE, adds missing cache flush after SCSI transfers on Falcon with 040/060 CPU and finally, updates the STE DMA fix for recent (12.70+) versions as the original one wouldn't work anymore. Use at your own risk, as I do. ;) P.S. I cordially invite HD Driver's author to take my code and adapt them into the official product. New routines are provided in the source code comments, free for grabs.",
