Is there anything else on the chain besides the drive? (CD Rom, for instance?) I've had problems with the Adaptec UW controllers playing well with my CDs and a couple of my HDs when negotiating the UW components - usually resulting in a hang or inappropriate probing. Usually I can get around it by cranking down the max sync transfer rate (for instance, on my CDs, I have to take it from the default of 20 MB/s to 10 MB/s in order for it to work). Also, sometimes its required to turn off the UW BIOS support. I don't know how much help this will be. I just know it works for me. :) -Brian
