those drives should support all FUA opcodes properly, both queued and

His first drive (sda) does not support queued commands at all,
but the newer firmware in his second drive (sdb) does support NCQ.
Both drives support FUA.

To trust or not to trust?
I have a 400GB SATA drive: WDC WD4000KD-00N. With these errors in dmesg
that have been mentioned throughout the thread, should I trust Linux using
this drive, or should I remove it/wait until a patch is released to
address this issue?
Also, in the forums (storagereview.com I believe), it has been noted that
these drives do NOT work on the Intel ICH5 controller, and this turned out
to be true, when I put it on the Intel ICH5, the box stalls for 2-3
minutes and then it does not see the drive. However, on the Silicon
Image, Inc. SiI 3112 chipset or Promise SATA/150 TX2 it works okay but it
has those errors in dmesg.
My question is, performing long and short smart tests, everything is
physically ok with the drive; however, I probably should not use this
drive for anything important in Linux, comments?
Justin.
