Dear Tam McLaughlin, I am facing the SAME issue. I'm having an Adaptec 39160 SCSI card with an attached AIT100 tape drive. When I start tape transfers, above mentioned parity error occurs.
I have tested the equipment and they seem to be properly contacted. Using Redhat Advanced Server 2.1 If you have solved this issue, pls. let me know the solution.In addition, were you able to find a source code implementation of the above driver. My kernel version is 2.4.9-e.27smp and www.adaptec.com doesn't seem to have the binary driver objects for this kernel version. I thought of compiling it from source. But couldn't find one.

Jun 24 20:30:27 moon kernel: (scsi1:A:6:0): parity error detected in Data-in phase. SEQADDR(0x1a3) I have checked the external SCSI cable and the cable from the external SCSI connector which is connected the the internal SCSI card. I have also checked the termination which is set to automatic (IIRC) and the DAT drive has been terminated. The SCSI card is an adaptec AIC7899 ultra160 wide with an HP 20/40 Gb DAT drive running Linux Mandrake 8.1 I have searched around and not found much on this apart from the fact that it could be a cable problem. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions about this? __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free web site building tool.
