I tried a Traven 10/20 GIG (which I have several of working on 4.7-RELEASEp6 and 4.7-STABLE)... Got the same error message... So it would appear that the ata driver is broken in 4.7-RELEASEp10... I will now update to 4.8-STABLE to see if that will fix the problem, will let everyone know the results...
