It sounds curious, but it may be worth a try for you, who have
problems with their adaptec 2940 controllers.

Last night I added a third disk to my system.

The new drive is the last one on the bus, therefor I pulled the
terminators off the second drive. Now my box is running 2.2.1-RELEASE
for more then 10 hours with no problems so far.

I checked the old terminators and voila one was broken :-(

So it may be worth checking all the cables and terminators.
