Yeah, we should rush out and buy Samsung drives with their faulty
firmware which "forgets" write operations if one sends the wrong IDE
command at the right time. (I know, there's a fix, but since it has the
same version nuber as the buggy firmware, you can never be sure. :))

And those pesky 4k blocks will never take hold. 512 bytes were a good
idea in the 1950s, so what's wrong with it now!?
