I'm not sure about the problem you're having with HDToolbox, but what type
of HD controller is in your 2000HD? I remember having problems similar to
what you're experiencing (old Mac SCSI drive not recognized by OS) when I
was using a 2090a in my 2000. When I switched to a 2091, I had no further
problems.

I think the 2091 was standard in the 2000HD, but it might be worth checking
to see if someone has swapped in an old controller...

Just a thought. Good luck.

Mark.
