Alan:

I have just suffered through a somewhat similiar problem.  I had
one drive in a chain of 3 acting up.  I changed the HA, didn't fix
it.  I changed ID's, I moved drives around.  None of that worked. 
My drives are all 35GB.

Changing the LVD cable/terminator finally may have fixed it, I
haven't had a problem now in about 2 weeks.  I'd have to go another
2 weeks before I can say for certain.  I don't see how the
cable/terminator could go bad.  It was $70, ouch.  For the record,
I also changed out the motherboard, for a different reason.

Interesting comment about eCS version of chkdsk.  I am running v1.2
but at one point I had booted to eCS 2 Beta and run a chkdsk.  I
just checked and the version of chkdsk.com on the v2 beta 3 & eCS
v1.2 is the same.  So why would it matter?
