Heh, that's interesting.  The feature isn't very well tested and it
wouldn't be too surprising if there are some bugs on all sides
(driver, controller and drive firmware).  Can you please try with a
drive from a different vendor and see whether it fares any
differently?
  

OK, I'll see what I can get hold of in the way drives which support that
feature...

Cheers,

Tim.
