Wide SCSI IHD on BlizzardPPC SCSI woes!

[Dragster]

Hello Folks,

I hope someone can help me. I got a Fujitsu Wide (68 pin) SCSI HD today and I'm trying to get it working on my AMIGA however HD toolbox does not recognize it. It's connected to my BlizzardPPC SCSI controller with han adaptor 68--->50 pin. The SCSI ID is set as 6 (it has 4 bits to config the ID),the SCSI units are set as ON in the BlizzPPC config. The CDRW and CDROM are perfectly recognizable. I've tried leaving the HD alone in the bus and everytjing but HDTOOLBOX does not see it. Should I move some other jumper of the drive? It has a jumper to disable wide and make it narrow but that didn't help either.

Drive specs are here:

Thanks forany help!

I connected as device 0, cdrom drive 1 and cdrw unit 2, the CDRW has the termination jumper set. It didn't help :-(

I'm starting to obelieve that there's something wrong with the drive but... I can't really know without testing it on another system...

Hello everybody and thanks for your answers!!!

Sorry for answring thislate.

Well, finally my troubles are gone, the drive got recognized and it's working now

What happened? Well...

After doing a lot of tests without success, I set the SCSI ID of the drive to unit 0, removed the termination jumper and put the jumper for the "force narrow" option, then I went to the SCSI menu of the blizzardppc and put the controller itself as unit 7 (the last one) and voilá, it worked!!!

So now the chain is termination (active with the controller if I understand correctly the blizzppc manual), then the HD as ID 0, a Plextor 40X cdrom as unit 1 and a Yamaha CDRW as unit 2 with the termination jumper ON.

Thanks again for all your useful answers.

So.. do you think this setup is donde correctly or should I remove the passive tertrmination jumper from the cdrw?
