Historically, Rodime has not had the most robust implementation of SCSI
around.  They usually are fine on the bus by themselves, but sometimes have
been known to cause problems with other devices.  Admittedly, it has been
a while since I fooled around with Rodime drives, so they could have gotten
it together in the last couple of years.
