hdparm-9.29
        - add --offset for use with -t, to get timings from middle/end of drive,
             courtesy of Sergei Kirjanov <rewlad@gmail.com>
        - restrict --trim-sector-ranges-stdin to small TRIM commands on most drives
        - fix w62 bug in -I
        - dump all data bytes with --verbose
        - warn about bad/missing sense data, but continue regardless
        - show in/out data[] separately with --verbose
        - Add reporting to -I for sata3 signaling speed.
        - force use of ATA_16 for all commands to ATAPI devices.
        - supply a sector count of "1" for IDENTIFY commands, to satisfy buggy USB3 bridges.

Just a note that 9.30 is out and still suffers from the above mentioned bug...
