Re: IDENTIFY failed

	Hello.  Without going and reading the probe routines, I wonder if we can create some sort
of hybrid approach?  Specifically, probe with the shorter delays, then, if we get a timeout,
reset and probe with the longer delays?  That wil cause hardware that doesn't exhibit the
behavior to work with the faster probes, while slowing the non-working hardware, slightly
during boot, while it's probed twice.  Again, I'm not sure how dificult it is to introduce that
logic, but it's a similar logic we used to determine if old PATA drives needed specific ATA
commands to address blocks over 148GB, or something like that.  (We'd try the command with the
standard command and, if it failed, then try it with the altered command and set a quirk.)
