You should use the "patched HD SC Setup" to format non-Apple drives for an 
'030-based Mac.  It's not difficult to find.

It's also possible that the PSU in your enclosure is bad, since one of the 
drives only worked temporarily.  Try to measure the voltages under load, or 
examine it for leaking capacitors.
