freebsd stable - Nov 2004 - SCB - timed out on FreeBSD 4.10-p2

[Reposted, no answer from the SCSI list]

I'm wondering if this has been seen before exactly? I'm seeing the
following on a FreeBSD server:

/kernel: (da1:ahd1:0:0:0): SCB 0x12 - timed out
/kernel: (da1:ahd1:0:0:0): Other SCB Timeout
/kernel: ahd1: Recovery Initiated - Card was not paused

Googling around a bit gave me a weak theory that the seagate firmware
might be defective, but that diagnosis is several months old. Can
anyone shed some light on this? I can provide more data on request.

The server has the following relevant devices on it:

As you can see, da0 is bios version 0007 and da1 is 0006. Upgrading da1
to 0007 might do the trick, but it doesn't always work for me...

We use a metric boatload of these machines and disks at REALJOB.

The mismatch on the drive firmware is almost certainly likely to be the 
issue here.

What's the revision of the Adaptec BIOS on the motherboard (4.00? 
4.10.1? 4.30.x?)
