I originally thought that the problem might be not enough bytes being 
checked, but now I'm concerned that Maxtor has some problem with not 
having a proper serial number recorded for some drives. hdparm -i also 
show M0000000000000000000 for both of these drives. Below is the output 
of hdparm -i for the two drives, and below that, the output of catting 
/dev/ide/hdk and hdl.

Doing a google search on "M0000000000000000000" shows that there have a 
been a handful of reports of maxtor drives showing this as the serial 
number, but I don't see any explanation of why.
