Hi,

FYI I've got the drive working, it seems that the connector or port on 
the motherboard is at fault, the second connector works fine.
The drive passes the hardware test from seagate in the first port but 
suffers from strange and not always repoducable behaviour such as 
partition sizes and types not being consistant with what was written, 
file systems corrupt, unable to mount a freshly created partition...
