[comp.sys.amiga.hardware] A3000 Harddrive -- Works!

Well, First a little backround...
 
I've been having problems with my A3000 since I decided to put in a
second drive.  The second harddrive I put in was a seagate, and I had
problems such as the drive not working wen I turned on the machine, or
having to reboot the machine after a cold boot to get the drive to
automount. finally, my seagate just wouldn't work anymore.
 
I just received a quantum prodrive lps in the mail today and installed
it.
 
The problem I was having with having to reboot after a coldboot to get
the drive to come up has gone away.  It works just like it is supposed
to.

I received no documentation with the quantum as to what jumper
positions are, so I had to just assume everything was right and didn't
bother messing with them.  I have my boot drive, the quantum that came
with the machine, as lun 0 address 0.  The quantum lps is lun 0
address 6.  

I hope we can figure out what is going on with the other people who
are having problems with their systems...
