OK, maybe my deal is related to that, maybe not.
It's been bugging me
for a while, though.
I have a number of older Seagate Hawk narrow SCSI 1G-2G drives. I have
a couple of LC 475s, the SE/30, and a IIci. I've never gotten one of
the Seagates to work as the internal drive on any of the older Macs
without using a cable terminator. I've tried term power to drive, to
bus, from bus, and IIRC, one of the 1G Hawks allows term power both to
the drive and from the bus. Never works. Terminated cable always
works.
"Somebody 'splain this wonderment to me!"
Doc,
Looks like forgot to terminate that internal termimation on
hawks. I have hawk 1GB, works great in external box as a end of
scsi chain without needing terminator pack on any machines even IIci.
Cheers,
Wizard
