But that could have been any number of the last 20 SCSI devices that I've put on the bus. I do that automatically w/o thought these days. I'm using an UltraStor 34F right now, so that is at least one difference. Have you done the normal scsi checklist: Are you sure it is terminated? On both ends? Any extra termination? Repeat 1-3 until you are really really really sure :-) Are the cables good and tight and of good quality? Have you tried reseating them? Can you enable kernel core dumps (see dumpon if you don't have this in your kernel) and find out where it is dying? Warner
