All the normal stuff has been checked: SCSI ID's, Connections seated, even different SCSI cable, a different branded (although visually the same) 80 to 50 pin adapter, with and without "motor" jumper on the drive and on the adapter.
What have I missed?
here's all the settings for this drive <http://tinyurl.com/6f2mv>
Did you unjumper 'delay motor start' as well as 'enable motor start' (which, iirc means it waits until it gets a signal to start. Delay motor start delays the system spinnng up, leading to the Mac not seeing it. on boot) ?
Does it remount on a restart?
The 'C' on the end of the model name made it not recognized at seagate's site. This isn't a former Compaq Raid drive, is it?
If so, I had one with the same problem I struggled with for a long time before I just gave up. Compaq did something to those drives to hardwire this behavior.
