It could be that your drive has newer firmware. Too bad firmware
upgrades for HD's are hard to come by nowadays.
Is there a way to check what firmware a drive has (either by using some
software - which would be the best option, or by reading a label on a
drive)?
If so, we might compile some list to be put in the FAQ?
There was also a post on the list -
http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0503.1/0827.html -
suggesting that upgrading Silicon Image BIOS helped resolving these
problems.
So it might be newer drive firmware, or newer SATA card BIOS (or both)
that makes my "sil + seagate" combination usable.
