Hi, It's possible the drives are bad. A few things to check: Are the drives properly terminated? Are the jumpers set up correctly? You'll probably have to open the case and extract the drive to check this. Seems like I had some SCSI drives that weren't for Mac and the jumpers were not correct for the Mac. Internet search on your particular drive in a Mac situation should give you a proper jumper configuration. Is there a conflict with another SCSI device (same SCSI ID)? Just a few things to check. Good Luck lt
