I saw two timeouts on spin-ups -- desktop drives like this one take quite a bit longer to wake/spin up than notebook drives.

The IDE driver timed out, reset the channel, and tried again (successfully) in both cases. The player software didn't even notice it happening (as designed).

If we were to make a habit of using desktop drives, then I'd add another 5 seconds to the spinup timeouts.
