Hiya I have a g3 accelerated (newertech) powermac 8500
with 512mb of rame and running os9.1.

I'm trying to attach a 36gb, sca Hitachi/ibm ultrastar
drive:

It's this one: IC35L036UCDY10

which is at:

http://www.hitachigst.com/tech/techlib.nsf/products/Ultrastar_146Z10

it's not showing up on my scsi bus at all. I'm using
an sca adaptor and I'm replacing a drive that is
between my old boot drive and the cdrom on the scsi
chain so it should be terminated at both ends right?

This is all on the onboard 50pin scsi disk controller
with the standard cable the mac ships with.

Has anybody had any luck connecting a modern scsi
drive to the old 8500 disc controller (or similar)?

Has anyone had any luck using an sca adaptor?

Would love to hear any tips, or even success stories,
from anybody who has done this.

love

Freya
