This doesn't seem to quite work for me on a SATA-1 disc:

sas: DOING DISCOVERY on port 1, pid:1897
sas: sas_ata_phy_reset: Found ATA device.
ata1.00: ATA-7, max UDMA/133, 781422768 sectors: LBA48 NCQ (depth 31/32)
ata1.00: configured for UDMA/133
scsi 2:0:1:0: Direct-Access ATA ST3400832AS 3.03 PQ: 0
ANSI: 5
SCSI device sdc: 781422768 512-byte hdwr sectors (400088 MB)
sdc: Write Protect is off
SCSI device sdc: drive cache: write back
SCSI device sdc: 781422768 512-byte hdwr sectors (400088 MB)
sdc: Write Protect is off
SCSI device sdc: drive cache: write back
sdc: unknown partition table
sd 2:0:1:0: Attached scsi disk sdc
sas: DONE DISCOVERY on port 1, pid:1897, result:0
sas: command 0xf785f3c0, task 0x00000000, timed out: EH_HANDLED
sas: command 0xf785f3c0, task 0x00000000, timed out: EH_HANDLED
[...]

It looks like the first few commands get through (read capacity, ATA
IDENTIFY etc) and it hangs up on the read for the partition table.
