hdparm identifies them with "-I", but libata doesn't allow HDIO_DRIVE_CMD
on ATAPI (yet?), and I've not yet updated hdparm to use SGIO directly.

But I did have such devices here once, like this one below,
from my library of IDENTIFY dumps:

MMmm.. there's even a drive on the shelf here that might
be that exact unit.  I'll plug it in and see if it is.
