There is no such message in the driver.  It must be one of the
following:

(da0:ahc0:0:0:) parity error during Data-Out phase. 
(da0:ahc0:0:0:) parity error during Data-In phase. 
(da0:ahc0:0:0:) parity error during Command phase. 
(da0:ahc0:0:0:) parity error during Message-Out phase. 
(da0:ahc0:0:0:) parity error during Status phase. 
(da0:ahc0:0:0:) parity error during Message-In phase. 
(da0:ahc0:0:0:) parity error during unknown phase.

Perhaps you have a bent pin on the drive?  I've never seent the
aic7xxx chips lie about parity errors.  It could also be something
like a cold solder joint on the 2940U2W.
