I don''t think that SATA controller is supported by the SATA framework
(you may want to ask storage-discuss), so it''s operating in legacy
(PATA) mode. Legacy mode doesn''t support hotplug. The FMA code should
eventually diagnose this drive as faulty, and there is a fix in the
works to sidestep this roundtrip discussion with fmd for pathologically
broken drives.
