[comp.periphs.scsi] IBM system/6000 External Disks?

JHS106@psuvm.psu.edu (03/23/90)

I have been trying to connect external drives to an IBM system/6000 through
its "SCSI" port.  I have tried CDC, SONY (optical), and Micropolis drives
without any luck.  The IBM still boots and appears to reset all devices on
the SCSI bus, but refuses to acknowledge the existence of the non-IBM
hardware on the bus.  Has anyone found peripherals that work on this
system?  I've also posted this on bit.listserv.power-l.  Thanks,
Jim Smith (JHS106@PSUVM).
