Great.

Newer kernels have DEVTYPE in the envent environment, and:
ENV{DEVTYPE}=="disk"
can be used, which is easier and more reliable.
Also the whitespace after "...PHISON *" does not need to be matched.
If the match value does not end in whitespace itself, udev will match
against the value with all trailing whitespace ignored.
