On second thought, since you've got everything on that SCSI bus, I'm not
sure the system can avoid freezing if the bus locks up.

I kinda doubt you'll be able to fix the problem by upgrading.

Since you have a 7895, it might be worthwhile to put the tape drive on the
second SCSI bus.  That way the bus your system disk is on won't get locked
up.
