I was having exactly this problem with my 7600 with an XLR8 G3 card. I also
had two internal hard drives and a CDR-W installed internally. I thought for
a long time that it was one of the SCSI devices not configured properly, but
I solved the problem by removing all 8 RAM chips and re-installing one at a
time. I found one chip that did not play well with the others, and since
replacing it I haven't had the problem any more. The chip passed all the
usual tests without showing defects.
Hope this helps,
tafkar
