[ale] SATA drive not recognized by BIOS

Understood. FWIW, this is software RAID (mdadm). I ran the system
for a week and a half with the "bad" disk removed from the array without
any errors.
The system is old, but not ancient. A Dell Precision T1700 which I
bought refurb'd in 2018. As far as I can tell from the interwebs, it
was "new" in about 2015. So about 8 years old.
