Hi all,

JrFrost's solution fixes my 500G FreeAgent drive!
(his solution being:
 echo 1024 > /sys/block/sdX/device/max_sectors ;
 echo 1 > /sys/class/scsi_disk/X\:0\:0\:0/allow_restart
)

However, this setting doesn't persist after I've disconnected the drive -- I need to run those commands every time I plug in the drive or reboot the computer. Is there any way to make the change permanently?

Thanks!
