smartmontools here insists the disk is a SCSI disk.  I believe the
ARC-1220 handles SATA disks.

I would say "try smartctl -d ata" or "smartctl -d sat" but I'm willing
to bet those throw errors in this situation -- or they might do
something like show the drive model string, etc. but not get SMART
attributes (yes I've seen this, but on Solaris).
