I have a PB 540 and an 840AV.  I couldn't get the 840 to start with the
PB connected using a normal SCSI cable and the 30 pin SCSI PB adapter in
Dock mode (switch on).  I had to  

a.) leave the PB connected in "dock" mode, but off

b.) turn the 840AV on and let it finish booting up

c.) turn the PB on and mount it using Drive Setup.

Everything worked fine after that.

I have attached desktops SCSI to SCSI and been able to mount the hard
drives with various combinations of restarts and switching off then on.

Sincerely yours, Grizzlygiant
