I got these two external SCSI Hard Disks yesterday, with 520M and 2G capacity. I connected them to a PowerMac 6100 and formated both in Mac OS Standard format. Then I tried to make them work on a Mac IIsi. I got the 520 disk out of the external cabinet, removed the jumper to set the SCSI ID to zero and installed it inside the IIsi cabinet. I connected the other one (2G) into the SCSI port, with SCSI ID 6. I started the computer from a floppy. It didn't see the internal HD. I tried several times. It acknowledged the presence of another "large volume connected" by presenting me a message that said I needed a 68040 or PowerPC processor in order to mount a volume larger than 4G, even though the HD's capacity is 2G only. Any ideas?
Thank You hmauro
