Subject: HD irq timeout
>Never seen this before, but now it happens for the third time this month

>kernel: hdc: irq timeout: status=0x50 { DriveReady SeekComplete }

>At the same time I hear hdc spinning down for a short time, then it
>starts up again, and works normally. This only happens when accessing

>hda and hdc are 4.3G Quantum EIDE drives, hdb is a somewhat old Sony 4x
