Luis, you will have to open up the SE and take the HD out. Then pull the
'Terminators' out, double check the Internals SCSI address, it should be set
to '0', Now put the HD in, and the SE back together.
[You might want to check the External first to make sure it has it's
Terminators still. If not, there is part of the problem, you will need to
have terminators on the external HD. If it has none, and it will fit, use
it as the internal.]
Now if the MicroNet HD has the terminators, set it's SCSI address to '6',
and if any other externals are to go on the chain the next address would be
'5' then '4' and so on to '1'.
Now the big test, hook it all back together, and see what happens, it
should work now.
