Heh, you're the first one to connect a SCSI3 disk to an SBus isp(4) it seems: > sd1 at scsibus0 targ 1 lun 0: <SEAGATE, ST318305LSUN18G, 0340> SCSI3 0/direct > fixed Since it is a "modern" disk we send it a a "big" SCSI command to figure out how big the disk is. A SCSI3 disk should be able to handle these commands just fine, but unfortunately the firmware we use on these SBus isp(4) cards doesn't implement the firmware commands to send these commands to the disk. I was able to reproduce the problem on an ss20 and committed a fix for the problem. Snapshots with the fix should appear soon, perhaps even in a couple hours. Until then, you could remove that SCSI3 disk (sd1) and use the SCSI2 one (sd0). Cheers, Mark
