I am not at my machine for another week, but judging from what I have
heard - the patch does make it safer, is certainly a good idea to
apply, and yet still does not resolve the issue.  I need to find out
how it affects my machine - expect this as soon as I can.

Meanwhile, Satadru, I suggest you invest in an internal drive - or try
using all your devices on the same scsi controller, which I have heard
might help.
