I have a problem with your 4008 SCSI controller. I can't swap removable media (SyQuest) without rebooting the computer. When I swap, Workbench displays an icon for the drive but labels it as NDOS or with random characters. I use FaaastPrep to format the disk. After low level format, it gives me an error when running DOS format. I quit the program and use the regular Amiga format command for the DOS format. I have about a dozen systems with the same configuration and I have this same problem with all of them. I sent a fax yesterday with more information, including my system configuration. I need help with this – I plan to field 50 or more of these units this year and this problem is significantly reducing our productivity.
