I have been having a similar problem with  Newbury 4380 drive (320 mb).
The drive hangs the SCSI bus on a MacPlus (but not MacII), even with
"Unit Attention" disabled. I wrote a small program to simply reset the
SCSI bus, and after that is done, I can mount the drive manually, using
the SCSI cdev. You might try the same thing - if you can get the drive
to a state that will respond to inquiry commands, you can likely find
out enough about the drive WITHOUT the manual to be able to get it up
and running.
