Jeff, last night I connected my whole system back together and the hard
drive has been working fine since.  I cannot understand why this is,
since the SCSI card alone was crashing my ROM 3 GS just yesterday.  Now
I have a 62 meg drive (don't know what brand) that is internally
terminated, running off the Rev C card.  It seems that when I connect my
Hypertape drive the system won't boot.  I still don't know why.  I have
set the SCSI ID to a different number, and all cables are okay... power
supply seems to be okay.   I didn't know the Rev C card was so fussy.
