Thanks for your answer. Tagged queueing is disabled on all drives as it is
the default. But I think, I made the mistake (and I'm sorry about that):

I've compiled the "old", problematic 2.1.111 kernel with egcs-1.03 using the
'-O6 -mpentium' Option.

Now I compiled 2.1.114 using '-O2 -mpentium' and now everything works
perfect (as it used to be) with the 5.1.0-pre4 driver. I copied and compared
about 2 GB this evening without problems and I hope its "just" a problem
with egcs high optimization levels.

Thanks for your work

Carsten
