Hi all; I just got a G3-300MT a couple of weeks ago and I've got something I can't figure out. The MT came with an ATTO Apple SCSI card driving a Quantum Viking 4.5 WSE drive. I put my 40 Gig Maxtor in as the Boot drive on ATA bus 0, ID=0 and put the Viking in the lower bay on SCSI bus 1 (still on the ATTO card), ID=0 as a storage drive. Now some times when I do something that acesses the Maxtor boot drive,(everything I use day to day is on the Maxtor) the MT acesses the Viking and freezes. It mainly seems to do it in Outlook Express. Sometimes on bootup or restart the MT will boot up to the first partition (which contains the System folder) of the Maxtor appearing on the desktop then hang with the spinning beachball. The mouse will move, but that's all. Three finger salute time. The Maxtor and the Viking are the only drives on their respective busses and terminated. The only thing I may have done when I moved the drives is used a different plug on the internal SCSI cable from the ATTO card. Which plug should be used with only 1 drive? It has 3 or 4 plugs on it. I'm running OS 8.6 on the Maxtor and 8.5 on the Viking with 384 megs of ram, VM set to 385. So far I've cleared the PRAM with TT Pro, zapped PRAM 10 times(Command,Option,P R.)and trashed Finder prefs. Seems like it's something simple I'm overlooking. Any and all help greatly appreciated.
