I also have a pelxtor scsi drive. It sounds like your scsi card. Getting scsi to recognize hard drives is easy, but I have had some problems with my cd drives.

Honestly, my problem just kind of went away. Which scsi card are you using? Perhaps the 2940 can't handle the 40x drive. I upgraded to the 160MB card. Screamin' fast, no problems.

SCSI is the ultimate performance level for drives, but the support isn;t there because the industry hasn't migrated to this superior 15 year old technology and refuses to move away from the even more ancient and antiquated IDE bus.

Unfortunately, scsi devices require that you are a little PLEXable. (ok, the puns need to stop now)
