Recently I got bad experience, the story is:
I have AHC_SCBPAGING_ENABLE and one SCSI-2 disk, it works right
for a long time. When I add second SCSI-2 disk, this option almost
immediately seriously damage my root filesystem on _first_
disk with diagnostic:

data overrun of <some big number> bytes detected.  Forcing a retry.

When I resurrect my root filesystem and remove this option, all
works right with two disks.

BTW, AHC_TAGENABLE option works right in both cases.

Details:

ahc0: <Adaptec 284X SCSI host adapter> at 0x1c00-0x1cff irq 11 on eisa0 slot 1
ahc0: aic7770 >= Rev E, Single Channel, SCSI Id=7, 4 SCBs
