Open the file and add the following at the end of the file, before default: <snip> <WD1005FBYZ> <offset firmware="RR07">0</offset> <offset firmware="default">0</offset> <family> "wd_Gold"</family> <wd_name>"Gold"</wd_name> </WD1005FBYZ> <DEFAULT> <firmware version="default"> <offset>0</offset> </firmware> <name> "UNKNOWN"</name> <family> "UNKNOWN"</family> <wd_name>"UNKNOWN"</wd_name> </DEFAULT> </model> </drives> 3. Save and close the file. 4. Remove write permissions so that no one accidentally modifies this file: chmod u-w /etc/pendsect/drives.xml 5. Run the following command and check /var/log/messages to verify no errors are seen: /etc/cron.daily/pendsect
