100% certain the jumpers are set correctly? Does the drive have removable termination resistors? If so, try removing and reinstalling them to wipe off any layer of oxidation on the pins. Do the same with all the jumpers on the drive. Does the owner of the Mac smoke? Cigarrete smoke is nasty bad for computers. :P How big is the drive? If it's HFS standard format and 650 meg or smaller, try connecting it to a SCSI card in a PC, then install Nero Burning ROM and see if it can burn the volume to a CD-R. If it can, then see if a Mac can read the CD-R. If you save the data that way, then while you're at it, use the PC's SCSI card to low level format it before putting it back in the Mac. ===== "When you are wrestling for possession of a sword, the man with the handle always wins."
