Many people have reported this problem.  Until Adaptec comes out with a new 
driver (I was told by them 4 weeks ago that it would be out in 2 weeks) the 
only thing you can do is adjust the LASTDRIVE statement.  This will only work 
if you are not on a network and do not need to map network drives and if you 
do not have other cdrom(s) on the same scsi bus.  For most people, the eight 
drives do not present a problem.  Keep beating up on Adaptec and HP, tell them 
to stop blaming each other and get the problem solved.  This is a well known 
problem and has been around for about 3 months now.
