Thanks for the suggestion, but I've BTDT with the leader on both TK50
and TZ30. The leader is attached on both the TZ30s that are screaming.
In fact, both drives will successfully load, unload, and allow
insertion/ejection of a cartridge, as long as they aren't plugged in to
a SCSI bus. I've tried them on a PDP-11, a MV3100-90, and a PeeCee with
an old Tekram SCSI adapter.
And yes, I'm attaching the ribbon cable correctly - I have a third
TZ30 that works perfectly on the same systems.

Screaming TZ30's usually mean a hardware problem.
Is the plastic leader still attached correctly?
This is one of the most common problems with these
type of drives. Anyone
have a TK30 manual?
Don't you mean a TZ30 manual? What do you need to know?
