They definitely made some as you can't flash Dell drive with Seagate/WD
firmware. Or get support from Seagate/WD for Dell-branded drive.

Specifically in this case drive reports support for this power management
command but fails to respond correctly when Solaris sends such command. I'm
pretty sure I was told that Seagate OEM drive works fine while we were having
these power issues with identical drive purchased from Dell.
