The drive:

The SATA controller:
00:17.0 SATA controller [0106]: Intel Corporation Cannon Lake Mobile PCH SATA
AHCI Controller [8086:a353] (rev 10) (prog-if 01 [AHCI 1.0])
DeviceName: Onboard - SATA
Subsystem: Dell Device [1028:0924]
Perhaps the user could run:
https://github.com/floatious/max-sectors-quirk/blob/master/find-max-sectors.sh
So we could find which max sectors value we should quirk the device with,
since while the drive obviously chokes on a command of size 4 MiB / 8192
sectors, it might be able to handle something larger than 1280 KiB / 2560
sectors.
Kind regard,
Niklas
