Hmm, that's a question to the SCSI experts here.  If i read this
correctly, it doesn't mean a parity error in the SCSI transport (which
would be bad cabling etc., and which should cause a parity error
_message_ in response), but rather a parity error inside the target,
reported as an error _condition_ by the target.

That's probably time to obtain the SCSI reference manual from Seagate
and see for which exact condition they're reporting this error
condition...  Maybe it's easier to try reformatting the device first
(which will cause bad block replacement to be performed).

Yes, this was a brain-o.
