I understand that the nickname is 'Grumpy Old Fred', but it is necessary
to YELL because I got the existence/non-existence of the twist in the
cable backwards?
If I had said that the cause of the drive ID weirdness was because I
have my US electrical socket installed with the grounding pin facing
downward then I could understand the caps lock for emphasis, but in the
grand scheme of things that was really a minor nit.

drive select jumper is non-standard on this one. No problem it works
just fine.
a LACK OF A TWIST will do that
