I have two of these drives myself and have used them on a variety of Macs,
both as external and internal (the Umax c600 is the only computer I've had
big enough to handle these as internal drives). As I recall, my method for
getting them formatted was to hack Apple's Drive set-up program. I could
send you the hacked program or the instructions to do it yourself if you
like. I also downloaded the user guide for the drive from the Seagate web
site. This showed me how to configure the jumpers.
As others have already pointed out, you may have a termination issue, or
some other problem with the way the jumpers are set.
Let me know if I can be of help,
tafkar
