Hi,
	I just bought one of those huge seagate ST410800N hard drives off
off e-bay and I'm getting errors trying to make it useable. I've connected
it via an external enclosure to my AlphaStation 200. I'm using an active
terminator. dmesg reports the following on bootup:

da1 at sym0 bus 0 target 4 lun 0
da1: <SEAGATE ST410800N 7114> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device 
da1: 10.000MB/s transfers (10.000MHz, offset 8)
da1: Attempt to query device size failed: MEDIUM ERROR, Medium format
corrupted

and when I try the following commands I get these errors:
lizard# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/da1 bs=1k count=1
dd: /dev/da1: Input/output error
lizard# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rda1 bs=1k count=1
dd: /dev/rda1: Input/output error

from dmesg:

(da1:sym0:0:4:0): READ CAPACITY. CDB: 25 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 
(da1:sym0:0:4:0): MEDIUM ERROR asc:31,0

Is this drive bad?
