[comp.sys.mac.misc] Mac+ Dead Hard Drive?

kms@pro-permian.cts.com (Kevin M. Smallwood) (05/02/91)

        I have a Mac+ that operates just fine if I use the internal 3.5"
drive. However, if I plug the Apple 20 meg drive into it (that worked just
fine before I moved the computer in my car) it won't recognize the drive.

I have an Apple SCSI cable running from the back of the Mac+ to the TOP
connection on the back of the Apple SCSI 20 meg external drive. I have no
other connection to the drive (except the power cable).

The computer will get all the way to the "Question Mark" screen, and the
drive will Zzzzzzip and the red (led/drive on) light STAYS on. There is no
further I/O after this. I tried running an Apple SCSI utility to recognize
the drive, but to no avail. How can I access this drive? What have I hooked
up wrong?
