Ok, so the problem is happening long before the READ_CAPACITY command
is sent. If it's dying on the INQ then it's going to be quite a bit
harder to fix; every device under the sun needs to respond to an INQ
so that the OS knows what kind of device it is. Skipping that will make
the device pretty much useless to the OS.
