I have no set any options, except the command:

  hdparm -q -d1 -q -u1 -q -m16 -q -a120 /dev/hda

I have try hdpart -X6[68] with no luck, no UDMA mode in
/proc/ide/amd7409 and the performance is quite poor ~11MB/s (hdparm
-t)

If you need more information/details/anything, let me know.

Later, Juan.
