Drive conforms to: (null):

At boot-time I did get two lots of:

hda: task_no_data_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hda: task_no_data_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
hda: Write Cache FAILED Flushing!

Still on the first boot of 2.6.6 atm, so don't know if it bitches at
shutdown too.
