	From cam_xpt.c:

                /*
                 * Slow when tagged queueing is enabled.  Write performance
                 * steadily drops off with more and more concurrent
                 * transactions.  Best sequential write performance with
                 * tagged queueing turned off and write caching turned on.
                 *
                 * PR:  kern/10398
                 * Submitted by:  Hideaki Okada <hokada@isl.melco.co.jp>
                 * Drive:  DCAS-34330 w/ "S65A" firmware.
                 *
                 * The drive with the problem had the "S65A" firmware
                 * revision, and has also been reported (by Stephen J.
                 * Roznowski <sjr@home.net>) for a drive with the "S61A"
                 * firmware revision.
                 *
                 * Although no one has reported problems with the 2 gig
                 * version of the DCAS drive, the assumption is that it
                 * has the same problems as the 4 gig version.  Therefore
                 * this quirk entries disables tagged queueing for all
                 * DCAS drives.
