Summary: No problems here...

I have not had any problems at all with my SH204.  Do you always wait
until the seek-alignment is finished before turning your computer on?
My drive has performed flawlessly but I needed a little more storage
so I disconnected the internal hard drive and connected a Micropolis
50 Meg drive to the controller.  THis works too but a few applications
have problems (Final Word can read the swap file but cannot work with it,
etc.)  I think these problems are because of the extended partitioning
I have done with the Supra Formatter (4 Meg, 4.5 Meg, 7 Meg, 4.9 Meg, 
10.3 Meg, 10.3 Meg).

Demand a replacement if possible...you must have a defective board--
the controller??
