Okay, I installed a second hard drive on the SCSI chain in my PM 7500. I would have assumed that I would then see an icon for it on my "desktop" (I think that's PC talk, I apologize - but it does show how mac-illiterate I am, so you know you need to speak s-l-o-w-l-y to me regarding this!).
If I can't see it, does that mean that I put the jumper pins on wrong - that I gave it an address that either the CD-ROM or the first drive already has? Also, since I would probably want this to be my start-up drive, can I just give it an address of "0" (no pins) and then install the OS on it, and that would work fine? I originally had to take the SCSI ribbon out of the first drive and insert that "plug" into the second drive and insert the other "plug" into the back of the first drive because the thing wouldn't reach both otherwise. Is that what caused the problem? I'm a little fuzzy on the issue of "termination" and how that works. Okay, it's 4:15 p.m., and I really need an answer by 5:00 p.m., when I'm going to a meeting. But, I can come back after the meeting to get my answers if I have to, so I can get the computer running properly tonight. (The above is just a joke - while I "need" the info now, I'll take whatever I can get when I get it. If all goes well, this will be the last time I have to ask you all about a second hard drive!)
