I have a verified report that the VIA chipset in any mode but PIO
does a hard lock with this drive revision only.

The MPB3043AT id okay but MPC3043AT dies hard.
^B revision ^C revision

Only 4.3Gig drives with the C revision of the firmware were quirky.
This is the last piece of data that I had collected in the past.
Note that even the "W"-word OS chokes once DMA of any level is enabled.

Cheers,
