I'm not quite sure but this sounds as if the ICD driver software does
not implement the TT SCSI protocol correctly. (There's only one
driver that does: CBHD for the TT. This driver will be publicly
available RSN, so you may want to test it for your drive. If you
just can't wait, please contact me via me e-mail.) Probably the
Conner driver sends some SCSI messages to the host after start-up,
and the code that I've seen in both AHDI and other third-party
drivers does not understand that.
