Hi again,

Sorry if this breaks the thread, because it is a little cut and paste from the
html version.  I also have had numerous problems with my wide drives.  I have
even updated the firmware and thought things were better, but last week a
cvsup brought a screen full of scb timeouts.  

The termination is correct.  The cables are ok.  The firmware is updated.  The
version running is 3.3-Stable #0 or #1 (don't have the box in front of me).
The logs are the same as everyone elses.  The drives are two Quantum WideSCSI
drives in sizes of ca. 1.0 and 4.3 GB. The controller is a pci card Adaptec
2940W.

I would love to just change the hardware, but as I see IBM drives often have
the same problem and I don't have $300 to spare right now, I am hoping the bug
will be found before I fsck myself silly.  The drives have caused a couple of
crashes and clobbered everthing from logs to src to my X-server binaries, so
it is more than a nuisance.  BTW, the drives have no new bad sectors either.

Sorry for the terseness in respect to the logs, but the last 10 mails with the
same logs haven't lead to a resolution.  They can be provided, but don't seem
to be being used.
