There seem to be problems specifically with this device (Prolofic
PL3507) that show up as slightly different symptoms on different
configurations:

http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux1394-user&m=107581288704098&w=2

What is the content of /proc/bus/ieee1394/devices when the drive
is *not* recognized as an SBP-2 capable device?

What is shown in the "SelfID info" in gscanbus when the drive is
not recognized, and what when it is recognized? (Left-click on
the device symbol.)
