The "hang" is because no IO's are processed until 3 seconds
after the BUS RESET is issued.

I was pretty sure "LC" suffix meant LVD with SCA 80 pin connector.
Specs on seagate.com are easy to find if you know the model.

If both internal devices are LVD, check early sym2 dmesg output
to verify the SCSI bus is operating in LVD mode (vs SE).
