I got lucky at Googling after all and found the relevant command:

# update_drv -vf sd

The PERC H200 card had nothing to do with it, it was all in the crappy
firmware in the HDDs. Simply adding

sd-config-list = "WD      WD3001BKHG","power-condition:false";

to my /kernel/drv/sd.conf (as you suggested) and reloading the driver
using update_drv solved it and I could then proceed with the
installation. The installer was even smart enough to install the
customized sd.conf into the new system, so no further tuning was
necessary.

Thanks for the pointers, you saved my bacon.

Cheers,
