I bet the drive is just too big.  That scsi drive(er) is too old.  Try a smaller one.

I agree. Go smaller. I had an IBM 540Mb hard drive hooked to my ex-Microbotics SCSI module. That work OK (for 1.3 OS).

Ya, even 100MB is way more than I need on this A1000.

Oddly, when I scanned eBay, all the 50MB, 100MB, 250MB etc. old SCSI drives are like $80!!  WTF?!  I just bought a 320GB drive for my SAMiga for $69, new!!

The last time I sold old Amiga SCSI hard drives on eBay, I was shocked at what they brought! I started three ( one 50Mb one 100Mb and one 120Mb) out at $5.00 - and got just over $200.00!  I got $25.00 for a 540 Mb SCSI drive - go figure...
