Well it originally booted up my duo with minimum install of OS 7.5. and
HD SC Setup sees it and even formatted. But when doing a regular install
of OS 7.5 it froze the computer.
I have gotten a few other disk utility programs to find it but when they
attempt to format it, update the driver, check it, etc. they all freeze.
With one exception...FWB HD Toolkit's WorldControl program will find it
and then I can Stop/Start the drive. Anything else causes it to freeze
the program.
I just wondered if others have had experiences with SCSI drives that
work at first, then get worse and worse when trying to repair or format them.
