We have recently installed a Seagate Hawk SCSI-2 drive in our Window NT 3.51
Server.   The Event Viewer indicated that the system detects a controller error.
(driver: aic78xx.sys).   Once I removed this seagate drive, the error message
went away.   

This is the configuration:

    (internal drives)
	|----- HP SCSI-2 (TE enabled; ID = 0)
        | 
        |----- Seagate ST15230N 4G (TE disabled; ID = 1)
        | 
        | 
Adaptec AHA-2940 (Terminator disabled)
        |
	|---- Exabyte SCSI-2 tape drive (ID = 2; externally terminated)
    (external drives)


I also tried the latest driver (aic78xx.sys) from Adaptec.  It did not help.
Any suggestion is welcomed.
