Default no UDMA for prim. slave HD?


I can't seem to get my primary slave hard disk to run in UDMA 5 mode.
I have 2 identical hard disks (60GB Maxtor) on the primary IDE as master &
slave.

DVD drive om sec. master IDE (UDMA 2)
DVD+RW on sec. slave.

Intel Application Accelerator says both HD's run in UDMA 5 mode.
Nero Infotool says the prim. slave drive is NOT in DMA mode.

I'm afraid the infotool might be right. Having both drives defragmentised,
and using a benchmark program, I get the following results:

C: 25 MB/sec.
D: 16 MB/sec.

This can't be OK. I need faster D: for video capturing.

Windows2000ProSP4 on C:
Windows swapfile on D:

I had both drives doing 25 MB/sec. This was under Win2kSP3 before
reinstalling Windows 2000...
Any solutions are very welcome!
