I'd suggest you change SCSI device numbers on the drives.
Set the Conner to # 0 and the other to # 1. This is done by
changing jumpers on the drives themselves, or in case the
drives are external, there usually is a thumb-wheel selector.

Caution ! Do NOT set the drives to the same channel ! If you
don't know what you're doing, do it gently...
