The one problem I've encountered with the A3000
SCSI is that it doesn't
autodetect and automount removable devices (more specifically, the SyQuest,
CDs work fine) when they are inserted.
My A3000 insists on a properly terminated device being
present on the external connector at all times, whether the device is
powered on or not. To me, this suggests that the mainboard isn't
properly terminated. This isn't a big problem since I generally have
a CD-ROM (Apple CD-600) plugged up to it. My previous A3000 was even
pickier, which was why I installed a DKB Rapidfire SCSI-2 board. The
A3000's SCSI quirks are fairly well documented on the web though.
I've yet to try a removable drive other than a CD, so I'll have to
plug one of my MO's up to it and see how it reacts.
Here are some programs for fiddling with the NVRAM
settings for the A3000
SCSI. Haven't tried them yet:
Yes, I've been using SCSIprefs for a number of years. It's
quite handy.
