sil_blacklist - are all those entries necessary?

in sata_sil.c there is:
sil_blacklist [] = {
{ "ST320012AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST330013AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST340017AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST360015AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST380023AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST3120023AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST3160023AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST3120026AS", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST340014ASL", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST360014ASL", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST380011ASL", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST3120022ASL", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "ST3160021ASL", SIL_QUIRK_MOD15WRITE },
{ "Maxtor 4D060H3", SIL_QUIRK_UDMA5MAX },
{ }
};
I've got ST3120026AS and I've been using it with SIL3112 without this hack for
a long time - without any negative effects. The same impression on
ST3200822AS - is there any way to check if it is REALLY necessary? 15MB/s is
not what I'd expect on SATA...
