Comment 52 for bug 548513

I'll try compiling hdparm with those changes shortly. Just an observation, put the disk in a more flexible (connection wise) WD external controller, used eSATA which should by what I've read from bugs.lauchpad.net work out of the box. Well, it does not.
I'm beginning to suspect that the full disk encryption on the disk has something to do with the lack of discovery.

I'll propably rescue the data next under a different OS and see if the disk can be made to work with the patch above. And next time, I'll use a encrypted container like I've done with the other WD (which is a 2TB Mirror, even though I've a 2TB World aswell.)

PS. Funny, WD does not list the exact model of the drive I'm having problems with anymore. Neither do they list the one I moved into...
