Thanks, I looked at dmesg previously but didn't see anything.  I might
be overlooking something there, but in the syslog, I see this:

Unfortunately, due to the pinning difference, I need to disconnect my
SCSI tape device.  The card and tape are 50-pin, and the HDD's I'm
trying to pull the data from are 68-pin.  When the tape drive is
plugged in instead of the 68-pin HDD's, I get the following output:

Here is all of dmesg's output in case I'm missing something:
