Yes, your memory does serve you right!  I'm sorta leaning towards the
onboard Adaptec dual-channel controller, though I haven't ruled out the
disk.  I got a great buy on a *new* 9G SCSI Cheetah on eBay today ($.01
+$9 shipping), so I'm going to stick that in when it arrives and see if
the problem resurfaces.

BTW, what does Term. Pwr. on SCSI mean?  Should it be disabled or enabled,
and if the latter, should it be enabled only on a single device?  I'm using
LVD cables with active terminators at free end.

Thanks.
