Yeah...I just recently got an IBM drive that has absolutely refused to
work on any narrow SCSI bus I've tried it on. It works fine on a
peecee with an LVD SCSI card in it - but it isn't the peecee that I
want to use it on, but rather a SS20. *growl*

I used to think that "SCSI is SCSI is SCSI". I think this is the first
case I've met where a SCSI device doesn't Just Work....
