Is this an ABP-940, an ABP-940U, an ABP-940UA, or an ABP-940UW?
I have all three here, and I want to ensure that I use the same
board you have to reproduce the bug.

Which of these drives is being accessed at the time of the failure?
Does the Fujitsu claim to support tagged queuing?  Are there any
SCSI error messages printed on the console?  You can get this
information by hitting <scroll lock> and <Page Up> once you hit
the install screen to see the kernel messages for the drives.
