Usually it is best if patches go into FreeBSD current first, because else I will have to keep track of the patches I take in. Regarding your patch, it looks OK, except it would be nice if the patch could be modified so that it automatically detects these quirks. Because adding quirks is a bad solution in the long run. Maybe you have another USB mass storage device you can test ? > > Thanks for working on this! > --HPS
