- Last year when I was installing my second hard disk, I had the
- *exact* same setup and the *exact* same problem. Sorry to say, the
- only solution I found was to buy a new SCSI card. You were right:
- from what I was told, the ST-02 will only work with Seagate drives.
- Do yourself a favor: burn the ST-02 and buy a *real* SCSI card :-}
-
- I finally got mine working when I bought an old Future Domain card.
- The only problem with it is that it requires a driver to use more than
- one HD. (sstor.sys worked for me.) I'm not using the Future Domain
- card any more, so if you can't afford a real controller card I'll give
- you my old one for the cost of postage to Finland...
