Re: how to slave scsi drives?
Erik,
See http://www.seagate.com/support/disc/specs/scsi/st34520lw.html
for jumper settings, et al, on the ST34520LW disc.
If the disc is not visible even after changing the SCSI-ID, I recommend you
try, in the following order: I assume the chain runs like this
CARD --BARRACUDA --34520
Is the Baracudda terminated? If yes, don't. The 34520 should be
terminated.
Are they on the same cable? Try changing the cable (Most common cause of
SCSI problems*)
BTW, Seagate has one of the best support areas on the web.
Note *: Most people know that the SCSI Bus must be terminated on full moon
nights, in goat's blood. What they fail to realize is that must be a
seventh son of a seventh son. That's all it takes to SCSI well.
