- | Well, I can't answer that question, but just in case it is helpful, I can
- | translate the sense data. The above error was due to the disk failing a
- | SCSI Start-Unit (spin-up) command with Illegal Request status, which means, it
- | didn't like the command and/or command block. However, the command block
- | (starting with 5th byte of sense data) looks fine to me.
-
- The Hitachi drives reject startunit commands unless the drive is
- jumpered to not spinup by itself, as I recall from our use of the
- drive.
