My suggestion was to try: + { "PIONEER BD-RW BDR-207M", NULL, ATA_HORKAGE_NOLPM }, However you tested: + { "PIONEER BD-RW DVR-207M", NULL, ATA_HORKAGE_NOLPM }, So I think that you simply did a typo in the name. Looking at you dmesg again however: [ 1.043657] ata1.00: ATAPI: PIONEER BD-RW BDR-207M, 1.60, max UDMA/100 [ 1.057988] scsi 0:0:0:0: CD-ROM PIONEER BD-RW BDR-207M 1.60 PQ: 0 ANSI: 5 It seems to print two different strings: "PIONEER BD-RW BDR-207M" "PIONEER BD-RW BDR-207M" So I'm actually not really sure which is correct... I guess try both and see which one that works? :) Kind regards, Niklas
