Looking through the results, I don't see a reason for the drive to fail
either. My best guess is the lines:
Write SCT (Get) Error Recovery Control Command failed: Read of ATA
output registers not implemented
[JMicron]
SCT (Get) Error Recovery Control command failed
are causing a false fail status.
If I'm wrong, hopefully Christian Franke or someone else more knowledgable
than I am will chime in and educate us both.
