Thanks...

Shortly after I posted my message, I discovered a 2266 related posting
in comp.periphs.scsi, that recommended turning off the read-ahead
cache.  I've done so and haven't had any errors yet (in over 24
hours).  In a separate email message, I was told that this is a known
Fuji firmware bug...

I'm keeping my fingers crossed, but it looks good so far.  
Thanks for the responses.
