Did some testing with older drives (and netconsole), everything in
pass-through mode. Looks like the controller firmware does not like some of
them (<1GB ones).

IBM H3256-A3 - firmware hangs (BIOS displays that the firmware is not ready)
Maxtor 7120AT - firmware hangs

WD Caviar 2850 - firmware does not detect it but works in Linux
WD Caviar 1425 - firmware does not detect it but works in Linux


WD Caviar 1270 - firmware does not detect it and fails in Linux - detected as
8860MB instead of 270MB and is unreadable:
