Hi, I think it would be useful to consider defaulting to 1MB boundaries in any case if drive appears to be "traditional" 512/512. I have seen the case where external USB adapters do not pass on the drive's alignment / offset data due to the cut-down SCSI command set used by USB to SATA adapters. Identify Drive works as a SATA pass through command but the kernel works at the SCSI layer and does not get the data required to set up sysfs alignment parameters.
