Hi,

    This is a strange one ...

    I took the Micropolis, 100Mb external HD from my Mac IIfx (its only
    drive on IIfx) and hooked it up on my Mac Classic with interal 40Mb
    hardrive.  When I booted Classic, the ext. HD never got recognized
    or appeared on desktop.  I used CDev tool SCSI Probe but it didn't
    recognize ext. HD either.  I tried different cable, resetting 
    pushable SCSI ID, SCSI terminators, etc. but the ext. HD was never
    recognized.

    Any suggestions?
