Perhaps blacklisting all WD/Maxtor drives that don't report an ATA
version, as the ata (and wd) driver works flawlessly in UDMA33 mode with
my setup:

...
ata-pci0: <Intel PIIX4 ATA controller> at device 7.1 on pci0
ata-pci0: Busmastering DMA supported
ata0 at 0x01f0 irq 14 on ata-pci0
ata1 at 0x0170 irq 15 on ata-pci0
...
ad0: <WDC AC313000R/15.01J55> ATA-4 disk at ata0 as master
ad0: 12416MB (25429824 sectors), 25228 cyls, 16 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S
ad0: 16 secs/int, 1 depth queue, UDMA33
...

Although I coulda sworn it was an ATA/66 device with the proper cable.
Hmm.  But hey, at least it works, reasonably fast too.  Nice job :)
