The problems I have had in the past with this early rev scsi chip have been
rather intermitent (sp?) as I have added things. Inside the 3000 I have 2 HDs,
then I added an NEC CDR-80 in an external chassis, then a MCD-40 tape drive,
then a big Siemens HD. The CDrom drive is the flakiest at that point, not
always reading or recognizing that a disc was inserted properly. I lived with
all that until I decided to move my film recorder to the Amiga and HDs weren't
writting good files, cd refused to acknowledge discs, and the FR locked up
alot.
There is a readme with the Cinelink package (FR driver by Active Circuits) that
tells of trouble with the chip I have, and I saw a post to the same effect go
by on internet so I am under the impression that this scsi chip needs to be
replaced. Agreed? Thanks.
