We're using a 3200S in a Dell PowerEdge 4400 server, where it is plugged
into a 2x4 hot-swappable backplane.  When I installed it, I created 
a RAID using the BIOS tools and then installed FreeBSD 4.1.1-STABLE
without a hitch.  It's been running like a champ for about 6 weeks now.
Check your disks, backplane, SCSI cables, connections, etc. very
carefully.  Try using fresh SCSI cables--factory defects can be invisible.
