Here's some clarifications re: my post - SCSI
card removal complications.

I'm not sure whether it's an SCSI or ATA drive.
Yes, it's the only  HD in the system. It IS an
SCSI card. I connected external SCSI hard drives
to it.  The ports on the ribbon are black clamps
the width of the ribbon with a slot that has two
rows of pins. There are four such clamps on the
ribbon, with the hd attached at the second and
the card at number four. The issue is removing
the card in hopes of solving some strange
behavior.  Here's my original post:
