Yes: Switch off tagged commands ... :( The HP drive is known to cause problems when used with tagged commands. The problem is diagnosed, but the solution isn't obvious, yet ... Can you rebuild your kernel ? Please add the following line to your kernel config file (for -current): options "SCSI_NCR_DFLT_TAGS=0" If you want to build a kernel for -stable, then add another options "SCSI_NCR_MAX_TAGS=0" You can selectively enable tagged commands for the other drives from /etc/rc.local: ncrcontrol -t0 -t1 -s tags=4 configures the driver to use 4 tags with both target 0 and 1, leaving all others alone (assuming the HP is target 2). If this works for you, then I can provide you with another patch, which might allow enabling tags on the HP drive, too.
