Is the JetStor III rated for U320?  My guess is no, but that it is not
properly rejecting the packetized request we make in our outgoing parallel
protocol request message.  To work around this broken device, disable
packetized protocol in SCSI select.  Just dropping the speed to 160 does
not disable packetized protocol.  You should probably disable QAS for
this target as well.
