I have noticed the same problem with my Fujitsu 128MB MO disk (M2511A). Whenever I mount the disk, or try to copy to or from it I get a slew of the aic7xxx: Target Busy messages. The drive however works fine, and things are copied to/from it without any errors in the files. Since it works (noisy, but it works), I haven't really tried anything to fix the problem. Since I use the MO for tar backups, I am concerned the abort. I'll try it when I get home and see if I can tar to the MO without it puking.
