Apparently the only problem that the version 420 firmware fixes
is the occurence of "Disconnected tagged cmd(s) timeout" messages
in some circumstances.  This problem has apparently only been
seen in HA configs sofar.  So I wouldn't bother too much ;)

For further details see the patch info and also Sun bugid 1257727
if you have maintenance.
