A bit of background:
  Since my Quantum VP3120 started to go wild ("grown defects" were growing
pretty fast) I decided to buy this Quantum FireballSE.
  The new Quantum gave me some weird READ ERRORs but no blocks were marked
in the defects table (there are no grown defects until now). Now that I
came back to the old situation I started a test program on it (it randomly
reads and writes 16Kb blocks in a file that spans on all space, with a
specified delay after each operation).
  The first 2 days I left it without ultra (sync. at 10Mhz, like the old
drive) and ran the program with 50ms delay. I had no problem.
  Now that I switched him to utra (sync. at 20Mhz) and ran the program
with 10ms delay it gave this erorr after approx. 1/2 day.

  Beeing that when I first installed the new Quantum I used utra (sync.
20Mhz) I believe I might have a problem with cabling/termination ? I know
that ultra speed needs special care (good cable/termination). What are
your opinions ?

  Thank you,
