Hi, Where I work we have the same problem we were not however able to get rid of this problem by elimination ie. we replaced scsi cable, scsi adapter and like you we replaced the drive (same specs same seagate) twice with the same results. We also added a fan for the drive noticing it became quite hot with no improvement. da1: <SEAGATE ST39236LW 0005> Fixed Direct Access Last that remains is probly a swap of the motherboard which seems wrong since the motherboard doesn't touch the drives at all ie. there is a controller inbetween. Power supply we thought may cause it too but swapping the power cables to drives this did not seem a problem. We've sticked this drive into another host of almost the same configuration and ran bonnie continuously on it as so that we would put continuous use on the drive with no errors reported.
