I know for a fact that the HP SureStore 200 model C3725S _is_ the drive
that won't work with tagged commands. I had this problem when using this
drive with an NCR 53C810 controller. My solution was to hook that drive
onto an Adaptec 2940U controller and all was well. I think there is a
command to fix this, though (don't recall what it is).
