Mr. Holder is correct about Master/Slave. That is not an issue with SCSI drives. I would also ditto his suggestion about double checking IDs and termination.
I have one internal drive and three external SCSI drives. Occasionally, after a crash, for whatever reason, a drive will disappear on a re-boot. If it remains elusive, I remove power from the ones that are identifiable and leave power to the "missing" drive on. Just the power, not the data cables. Upon re-boot, the "missing" drive re-appears as the boot device, (providing you have a system file on it). Then turn on the power to the other drives. Maybe they show up maybe not. However, on a subsequent re-boot, all drives are there. This is from personal experience, not S.O.P. It has always worked for me.
