Hmmm has a A500 with a GVP HD8+ with the OEM HD installed... Why when I connect either a 1024mb HP SCSI-2....a Quantum 540mb SCSI-2 or a IBM 2048mb SCSI-2 it just don´t show up when I run hdtoolbox it only show the OEM drive... why

Yep all drives has different ID´s... if I connect them to a A590 controller it has no problem with seeing the drives only on the GVP controller...

Have you set a unique ID for each drive and terminated only the last drive on the scsi-chain?

Yep no problem with the term either... have tried a prob with term then it don´t power on at all...

And is the termination correct? Some controllers works disregarding how you terminate, but some controllers are very kinky with the termination.

(edit):

I have a IVS Grandslam controller which doesnt seem to care how I terminate or if I terminate at all, it works disregarding.

No Clue has this version from my A600HD... But it´s the same version I use on the A590 and there is no problems there... I can even boot on the 2048mb IBM HD with the GVP but if I connect another drive it can see the other drive...
