DeviceFault comes from the drive

IDNF - ID not found. The drive couldn't find the sector you requested.
Some drives do this if they get an invalid sector number in the command
but that doesn't look to be the case this time.

I'd say its a busted drive. If you had bad cables I'd expect to see CRC
errors not IDNF.
