This "scsi disk" is an Emulex MD21 talking to an ESDI disk.  Commit 
chainsaw surgery on a Sun shoebox and you'll comprehend.  

Normally, the MD21 extracts the vendor information from the ESDI disk, and
reports that in its identify string.  - At least, this is the observed
behaviour in the only environment I'm forced to use these controllers.

The MD21 is _old_ and _crufty_.
