Thanks Will, After much head banging (and pictures from Jeff) I think I have it.

I bought the 9600 used, so who knows what might have been changed. But, an original (Apple labeled) 4 GB drive was in it. It had no termination jumpers on it. I suspect it worked in the 9600, as Jeff said, because of SCSI voodoo, and worked in the c600 because it was not terminated. > External SCSI the last device in the chain needs termination.

We replaced our CD with an Apple ROM version. And yes, it is terminated. > It took me forever to figure this out. I was slow on the uptake because I kept thinking the Motherboard was making its termination at one end of the chain. No matter how I added it up I was getting three ends to the SCSI chain: motherboard, end of internal cable, and last external device. With the motherboard (self-detecting) in the middle of the chain I understand. Nancy -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
