} Yes. I experience the same problem, but with my builtin IDE led. After loading
} the wdc driver the led stays on, no matter is there disk activity or not. Almost
} the same rpoblem as yours.

Since some lines are lead by a ".", during the pasting, the previous mail
was accidnetly sent out. Sorry about that.

This is kind of interesting issue. The LED on a SCSI drive should be actived
by the drive, but neither software nor the controller as my understanding.

I am curious if the LED can be actived by accessing the disk after the
system booted-up. If so, then maybe the problem is the LED on that particular
hard drive.
