Hi,

Has any one faced similar kind of problem? is there
anything i should try out with aic7xxx parameters? 

Things are working fine but one disk is operating at
160MB/s instead of 320.
We are running Rh7.2 with 2.4.20-13.7smp kernel. (With
the default kernel there is no problem at all)

Here's the dump ( /proc/scsi/scsi and
/proc/scsi/aic7xxx1 )

cat /proc/scsi/aic7xxx/1
