You may want to check/confirm the actual scsi cable is properly
connected and terminated.  Unlike IDE devices, there MUST be exactly 2
terminators on a scsi bus and the cable must be connected properly.
Less than 2 termination points, more than 2 termination points, or
terminators not at the ends of the cable can cause problems.

Connections MUST be made to both ends of the cable *at the end*. Any
connectors between may or may not be used.  Termination is usually done
by the adapter at one end of the cable, and by either a physical
terminator or the device connected to the other end of the cable.

If the drive can be jumpered to enable termination on the drive it can
be connected to the end of the cable. No other termination is allowed at
this end of the cable when this is used.  Termination must also be
compatible with the bus speed.  Your adapter is ultra 160 so the
termination must be at least that quality.

The last thing that is critical with scsi is addressing.  No two devices
on the same bus can have the same address.  I don't think that is your
issue since by default the adapter is set to ID 7 and the dmesg output
shows the drive is at ID 0.
