MPC3000 - Multiple SCSI drives, can't connect.

My syjet drive arrived today and I am trying to chain it to through my zip, but neither are showing up as active. My zip is first in the chain and is set to id #5 - terminate is set to off - and the syjet is set to id #6 - i cant figure out what i am doing wrong, thanks.

Syjet is terminated?

did your other problem go away?

Nah the other problem didnt go away but i believe Rohan has helped me in that.

On the other issue, it seems the SyJet does not have a termination switch. And I cant get the MPC3000 to recognize it period (plugging it in directly to the 3K).

Did you try formatting it? How about putting the zip after it and terminating it?

" it seems the SyJet does not have a termination switch"

The Syjet has automatic termination. It can sense if there are one or two devices connected and set it appropriately.

I cant format it, because the 3K cant see it.

I was referring to the weird things with zips where it doesn't see it but lets you format it.

I hope you get it working.

"I cant format it, because the 3K cant see it"

This tells us nothing. Have you tried formatting it? The MPC3000 will not recognize a drive until you BLINDLY format a disk at whatever ID is at.

Ive done that already. With multiple discs, i also downloaded the manaul and gone through the 3K manual.

Yo Dove, sounds like someone put the JuJu on you and your MP, lemme know if you need something to banish the evil spirits

Whats Saints you got on hand?

Santa Elena is a favorite, San Martin de Porres, Santa Marta the dragonslayer. San Cipriano is good against black magic.

Just dip your hand in some holy water at a church (as disagreeable as it might sound, it helps).
