SYMPTOMS
========
The SCSI specification reassign blocks command is set to 0x01 instead of 0x04.
You may not experience specific problems associated with this.
CAUSE
=====
The second sentence of the first paragraph of section 9.2.10 (reassign blocks
command) of the SCSI Specification X3T9.2/375R revision 10K states:

descriptors and does not include the defect list length header.
Windows NT 3.51 erroneously multiplies this field by 1 instead of 4.
