While all my Promise RM8000s are fine, somebody else in the building started having problems with his. After two days of experiments by our lovely system administrators the current working theory is that it was plugged into a RAID SCSI device, and the RAID on RAID action seems to confuse it when use gets heavy. Its been getting use plugged into a normal SCSI card, and all seems to be functioning. My Promise RM8000s where always plugged into a non-RAID SCSI device.
