[comp.sys.mac.hardware] SCSI drive weirdness

jay@argosy.UUCP (Jay O'Conor) (12/08/90)

I have a minor nusiance problem with my external drive.  If it is
powered on when I power on my Mac IIci, the IIci refuses to turn on!  If
I turn off power on the drive, then power up the IIci, then power up the
drive, everything is fine.  My SCSI chain is as follows:
Mac IIci (no internal drive)
Disk driver (terminated)
CD-ROM drive
Tape drive (terminated)

Anyone have any ideas why/how a SCSI device can prevent a IIci from
powering up?

Thanks,
