Command 0x61 is FPDMA WRITE (NCQ WRITE).

Error 0x04 is 'command aborted'.

Not much the driver can do but follow what the device is telling us...

If you disable NCQ, presumably this should go away.

thanks for your explanation, i will monitor this drive and disable ncq if it happens again


I should have added: given your report, it sounds like the error handling code took appropriate action for your error. It should continue transferring data (though perhaps not in NCQ mode anymore). HOPEFULLY all you see is a nasty message when the drive complains :)

If that is not the case, if you are seeing data transfer suddenly cease (or worse, data corruption) please do speak up...
