[comp.sys.mac] 20SC disk drive problem

Something happened to my hard disk 20SC a week ago.  I tried to shut down my
mac+, but it took a long time and there was no response.  The light on the 
drive stayed solid during that period of time.  I lost my patience and pressed
the reset button.  After then, I couldn't boot from the hard disk.  I ran the
HD20SC Install and it displayed the message 'Searching SCSI drive'.  After a
few minutes, it displayed another message '... couldn't find a suitable drive
connected to the SCSI port ...'.  Later, I booted the system with a floopy
disk, with the hard disk on.  It asked me to initialize the hard disk.  And I
did.  Now I am using the hard disk and I can boot from it, although not 
every time.  I still got the same message when I tried to run HD20SC Install.
I think the 20SC is functioning like a regular, serial hard disk.  Does 
anyone know what happened?  What can I do to make it function like a SCSI
drive?  I will appreciate if someone who knows can send me a reply to the 
address below.  Thanks for your time.
