Ok, like I thought, the disk was not defect. There seems to be a
bug in ata
regarding HPT372
First: Wiht BIOS version 2.342 the secondary master disk id is incorrectly
detected (something liek "X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X" instead of
"IC25N030ATCS04-0"
Please forget that. It was because for convinience reasons I had turned the
80-pin ATA cables upside down. So the black was at the controller and the
blue at the drive.
I can't imagine that this makes any technical difference (as long as no
slave drive is connected and there's no open end)
But it seems the single connectors are electrical coded (again I can't
imagine how?!?)
The shielding wires are only grounded on one side of the connector.
And then there is the cable select line.
