Yes, I was about to ask the same question, but you bet me to it.

It is probably the same issue as the one I encountered with my HD that
is too slow to show up on the IDE bus when SMSQ/E v3 is cold-booted
from the ROM.

LRESPRing again SMSQ/E v3.36 would definitely expose this, if the card
is seen after such a warm reboot.

I'm posting again here (but in-lined, this time, since the list does
not propagate attachments) the (quick and dirty) patch I made for my
HD and SMSQ/E in EPROM, and which introduces a 5s delay before querying
the IDE drives on boot:
