The hard disk is a Stardom 2611-2S-S1 device: actually two 250GB drives in a RAID0 config managed by the device itself - it should appear to the kernel as one SATA drive. If it matters, the underlying HDs are "Seagate Barracuda 7200 10"s.

I reported a very similar bug back a few releases ago. Anyone who wants to try it themselves, can do this with hdparm-7.7 (from sourceforge):
hdparm --drq-hsm-error /dev/sda
Whether or not it hangs the machine does depend upon exactly which SATA LLD is used, and what model/revision of drive is installed. But if it hangs for you (eg. Tejun), then you now have a way to reproduce a HSM error "on demand" for testing. :)
