If I switch back to the DDS2 and reboot, mt sees it fine. A rundown: Both are External SCSI drives set to SCSI ID 4 used the same terminator and cable I've rebooted several times The SCSI host adapter is an on-board Adaptec AIC-7896 (Intel L440GX+) using the second (B) SCSI bus. When I have the DDS-2 drive hooked up, the server's drive light functions normally (blinks when accessed), when I hook up the DLT, it just stays on. The only difference I can see is that the DLT is "differential" SCSI, which, AFAIK, just allows it to work with a longer bus. Is there something that has to be done to the host adapter to accomodate differential devices? TIA, James Smallacombe PlantageNet, Inc.
