just need a tiny little bit more help with scsi ;)

okay...when i boot up the adaptec scsi card posts, reads both drives: ST3102LW ID0, ST3103LW ID1.
before i couldnt get it to read ST3103LW ID1 but i played with the jumpers and got it to read both drives and boot into ST3102LW ID0 like it was before.
so i expected to see another drive letter for the second drive on ID1 but its not there!
i guess i'm still doin something wrong.

i have the scsi lvd/se ultra2 cable going from the card to the ID0 drive then to the ID1 drive then to the terminator on the end of the cable...i have no jumper on the back of the ID0 drive and a jumper on the first two pins/right side ID1 drive.

help rocks, you all rock!

What OS are you running? Did you "fdisk" that disapearing drive?

 

[Boozy43]

right now just win98...nope i didnt fdisk the drive.

i have 1 hard drive on ID0 partitioned into 2
C & D
then i have my cdrom and cdrw
E & F
i thought i would see my new hdd as E but it's not there.

before i knew i had it set up wrong cause it wouldnt read either drives when they were both hooked up.....but now it is reading both drives when i boot...it just aint showing the other drive...argh!

HAHAHA!
talk about missing the obvious...it was a formatted NTFS drive!

smak myself!
