Help me resurrect my GS!

[mystix@direct.ca]

OK with my return to CSA2 I have a reason to try to get my GS going again.
Several years ago my 40MB AE Vulcan was behaving erratically. To the point,
data was getting corrupted, and files were being mushed together. I figured
that the drive was toast.

Replacing the IDE drive wasn't much of an option since I would want a larger
drive anyways. And since I already had a RamFAST Rev. D I figured why not
swap in a SCSI drive instead.

So I did just that. I bought a DEC DSP3053L 535MB SCSI-2 drive had a custom
cable built and plugged it into my RamFAST. Since then I've been plagued by
system crashes most of the time I boot, or if it makes it to the desktop it
won't take much usage to crash the system. The crash is so bad I can't do a
warm boot, I have to power down, cross my fingers and try again.

Since then I had my RamFAST sent in for repairs but I still have the same
problem. I've pulled out all of my cards to see if they were the cause of the
crash with the same results. I've even used a standard SCSI cable and hooked
it to the external RamFAST connector and no change. I also bought another
Vulcan power supply case and it didn't work. I've even wired a separate power
supply for the hard drive and it still crashes.

I'm really at a loss here and would appreciate some help here. This is the main
reason I stopped using my GS because I couldn't use it at all.

The following is my setup:

Apple IIGS ROM 03 
5 Megabytes of RAM 
Slot 1: Vitesse Quickie Hand Scanner 
Slot 2: Applied Engineering Audio Animator 
Slot 3: Apple II Video Overlay Card 
Slot 4: Applied Engineering 7MHz TransWarp GS w/32k cache 
Slot 6: Sequential Systems RamFAST SCSI Rev. D w/1MB cache 
Applied Engineering Vulcan Hard PS
(replaced with a DEC DSP3053L 535MB SCSI drive) 
Apple Extended Keyboard II 
Apple 800k drives X2 
Applied Engineering Conserver Fan

On the external SCSI chain I have:
88MB SyQuest drive
100MB Zip drive (set to terminate)
NEC MultiSpin 4x CD-ROM
