Recently I've had my cube panic with some sort of SCSI timing error on my
internal 330 Mbyte disk, invariably when I'm running a few disk-intensive
processes (and quite possibly when it starts to swap).  Last night I left
several jobs running overnight and woke up this morning to the "dead
monitor/dead keyboard" syndrome -- could these be related?  Are they cause
for concern (my warranty expires in a few months)?  Anyone else see this
sort of behavior?

System configuration: basic cube + OD (not used when crashes occurred) + 8
Meg + 330 Mbyte hard disk.  This problem has occurred only a few times
within the past month.  I leave the cube on almost all the time.
