I had that with my SCSI Zip 100 until I slowed the max transfer rate down to 5MB per second. Might have to slow the Jaz down to match your SCSI bus speed, but I dunno how you can do that on a Mac. With most PC SCSI controllers there are settings in the controller's BIOS.>> Thanks, Gregg. I'll try hooking it up to SCSI card on my girlfriend's PC and see if I can do that, but then it wouldn't be slowed down any more if I connected it to the Mac again, would it?
