The reason behind this is that WD drives have seperate settings for

Master (w/slave) sometimes confuses IDE controllers when only one drive 
is present, which would be why your firewire box threw a wobbly. This 
doesn't make them bad drives IMHO ;)

Do you mean Master With a Slave?

Interesting.  Thanks for the insight. This was about a year ago and  I tried
everything I could think of and looked at the docs for the drive and found no
clue.  It worked fine as a single in master setting on the computer but not on
the Oxford Bridge.  Seemed pretty non=standard to me and it did sour me on them.
