Hello,

Since 5 years I use an Adaptec Controler AHA-2842-VL with a Seagate ST31230N 
harddrive. 

Last week I bought a new disk a WesternDigital WDE9100, a 50 pins connector drive. At 
this time the problem start to occur:
My new configuration is  (note both drives are extrernals) :

---------------+
Computer   | -------------{New drive}-------{Old drive}----(Terminator)
---------------+                  ID=3             ID=0

        
1) When I go in the Adaptec disk utility at power on followed by a CTRL-A (^A)  I 
don"t see the new drive, only the old one is available.

2) When I removed the old drive and connect the terminator to the new one, and 
re-execute the disk 
Utility, the news drive is available BUT all ID are set to this new drive (except ID=7 
(the controler ID)).
At this moment I can do fdisk to define a partition and then mke2fs a new file system 
in this new drive. 

Please note :
 In this machine I have 2 controlers:
1) aha-1520, IRQ=11 portbase=0x340
In this controler I have only one SCSI CD-ROM, in the LOG it's look like I have 7

2) aha-2842-Vl  IRQ=15
With this controler I encounter the problem that I already have on the other controler
With the CD-ROM drive.

Is anybody can help me?

Thanks.

Michel Guy Paiement
