256-byte sectors and Linux don't seem to like each other.  I think 
that Linux likes to buffer 512-byte sectors and gets confused when 
presented with something else.

However, I think that sg_dd might at least read and write in raw 
form, to and from your drives:

The alternative might be to hack an existing driver to transfer two 
sectors when one is requested.
