Odd SCSI Errors

Greetings,
	I have a powercenter 132 w/ G3 upgrade card
	and a whole mess of SCSI drives.  I have one
	external drive connected to the onboard SCSI
	that randomly gives the following errors:
EXT2-fs error (device sd(8,37)): ext2_readdir: bad entry in directory
#1169550:
inode out of bounds - offset=224, inode=135387292, rec_len=20, name_len=9
EXT2-fs error (device sd(8,37)): ext2_readdir: bad entry in directory
#1169550:
inode out of bounds - offset=224, inode=135387292, rec_len=20, name_len=9
EXT2-fs error (device sd(8,37)): ext2_readdir: bad entry in directory
#1169550:
inode out of bounds - offset=224, inode=135387292, rec_len=20, name_len=9
EXT2-fs error (device sd(8,37)): ext2_readdir: bad entry in directory
#1171563:
inode out of bounds - offset=48, inode=135391981, rec_len=36, name_len=27

It will do this when the machine is idle, or during a build. I have
heard about problems with SCSI on the 7200 series mother boards, could
this be it?  Or is the drive failing?  I have only had it for less than
a year.  I bought it to replace another failed drive.

This problem has occured with 2.2.15-2.2.17 kernels from various places.

Thanks
