I tried to connect a Seagate 4096 as a second drive on a 400, but when I
gave the parameters to idtools I got an error message like "cannot
re-int controller with new values".  There is "drive type" number that
is required, and the manual only lists values for the drives sold by
AT&T (but I tried several values with the same result.  The same drive
formatted normally on a PC, so I assume it is OK.  Should this drive work
on the 3B2s?
