Maybe. But don't count on it ;)
afaik this is not a viable option for this drive; it is MO and may have
some physical registering on the platter for the sectors. And if it were
possible, it wouldn't have been necessary to patch the 2.0.x kernel to
use the drive.
Thanks for the suggestions. I do have a contact in Japan, and will ask
him to skim the Japanese web sites for info. Will report back...
