I have the same drive and always get the "retries exceeded" message even when it works (4-stable and a vaio). If you haven't used other cards successfully in the slot, I'd make sure that you've followed the advice in the archives regarding pcic configuration (no polling on vaios, so change irq 0 to irq 10 or something, and change the memory location from d0000 to d4000 or something). I bet that's your problem. You will probably still notice that if the drive is not there on boot, it will have no power. My "solution" for this is always to suspend and resume before inserting the drive.
