As I understand it, the Mac Plus does not provide power on the SCSI bus and if a drive is depending on SCSI bus power for termination, it will not be recognized?!! The 3380 has a jumper that determines if the drive should get its termination power from the SCSI bus or from the drive itself. I tried it in either position but still the Plus refused to boot from it. Does any of you SCSI gurus out there recognize this problem and can suggest a solution? I appreciate your help very much. -- Saiid Paryavi Computer Science Dept.
