Haven't tried using a SCSI Amiga drive in WinUAE, but have successfully used an IDE Amiga formatted drive.  All I had to do was Run WinUAE, Go to the 'Hard Drives" tab, Click on the 'Add Harddrives' button, a window will come up, click the dropdown list button (little triangle pointing down) and my Amiga hard drive was listed there.  I selected that drive and then put a check mark in the 'Read/Write' box so I could write to my hard drive as well as read and clicked OK.  

Hope that helps.

Back in my day, we didn\'t have water. We only had Oxygen and Hydrogen, and we\'d just have to shove them together.

The Amiga drive didn't show up on Windows.  There was no drive letter assigned.  It was invisible to the system.  WinUAE was the only thing that showed it was hooked up.

With Amithlon, I just booted from the CD and then it booted into Workbench straight off the HD.  No problems at all.  

Is the drive you're using already Amiga formatted?

P.S.  I have tried WinUAE and Amithlon with both the standard FFS as well as with SFS (Smart file system) with great success.  SFS rocks though!
