- I have a 2gig HD, an IBM Mod# 0664M1H, which worked perfectly on my A3000
- under OS 2.1, and still works fine on a PC, but locks the A3000 up hard when
- I try to scan the SCSI bus to use the drive under OS 3.1. At the time I was
- running it under OS 2.1, I was also running the Rev.04 WD SCSI chip, though
- had switched to the newer Rev. 08, but am now back to the Rev. 04 chip. The
- 2gig refuses to work under OS 3.1 regardless of what is done or what SCSI
- chip is used. Anyone have any ideas what I need to do to get this drive
- to work with the A3000 again?
-
- BTW, the reason I switched back to the Rev. 04 SCSI chip is because I had
- another smaller external drive hooked up while using the Rev. 08 chip, and
- the more I used the smaller drive, the flakier the system acted until it
- finally invalidated one or both drives.
-
- I'm also running an external Sony CD-ROM and an Exabyte 8200 DAT tape
- drive.
