Hello All: I would like to thank each of you for responding/commenting to the above issue.
I have isolated the problem, but I can't solve it. The Silver 677 has a Adaptec 2930 SCSI card with an external chain of devices (some 3rd party external HD, APS Jazz Drive with Active Termination, and another APS external HD as the last device) There is a 60 gig IDE master (Seagate Barracuda ATA) came with the Mac, he added the 100gig last weekend as slave. The other ATA bus has only the superdrive. Now, as long as the SCSI chain is on and connected to the card, the IDE drives will not mount. Once the SCSI chain is pulled or turned off, the two IDE drives mount fine. Once OS 9.2.2 mounts it correctly, the 100 gig is also mounted when booted into OS X.1. I am waiting for a reply from Adaptec.
