[comp.sys.mac.hardware] Need help hooking Quantum 425S drive to Mac IIx

hindi@eniac.seas.upenn.edu (Faeiz Hindi ) (04/11/91)

I have recently acquired a Quantum 425S (425 meg) hard drive.  I
believe it is a SCSI drive.  My friendly neighborhood Mac software
vendor told me Silver Lining would allow me to format and partition
the drive for use with my Mac, but all the program does is tell me
there are no suitable devices connected to my SCSI port.  The drive
has two jumpers on it, and they are the same as the ones on the
Quantum 80S.  I have tried different positions (the drive came set to
EP and A0, my 80S was EP and none) but to no avail.  I despair.  Does
anyone have any suggestions on what to do next?  I'd really like to
get the drive working, for on it hinges my planned purchase of a Mac
IIsi, the drives ultimate destination, fate willing.  Thanks in
advance for all the help.
