Oh, that drive works on ports 5-6 ? I assumed that no drive that supports LPM worked on ports 5-6. (And that you simply reported WD20EFAX-68FB5N0 because that is what you had plugged in on that port originally.) So you are saying that: WD5000AAKX-001CA0 works with LPM enabled (lpm-pol 3), on port 5-6. but WD20EFAX-68FB5N0 gets timeouts with LPM enabled (lpm-pol 3), on port 5-6. That is weird indeed.
