A friend just recieved a 340 Maxstor drive and by all accounts it *should* be
just a question of pluging it in, then formatting, etc.
However, it hangs his machine in some kind of test loop. We have tested the
drive on other NXS's and it does the same thing. Yet when plugged into a Cube
it works fine. We were able to format it and load data onto it.

The last error msgs that we noted consisted of the following fragment :

SCSI unaligned DMAsc (I forget the rest).

Anyone have a similar problem? We vaguely suspect some kind of termination
problem but why does it work on the Cube and not the Nextstation?

From further investigation both the drive and his machine appear to be OK.

Thanks,

Alistair
