What's the name on the drive that works?

And are you sure the above information is for the same drive as yours?

Do you have a different drive there, sjakie?

@ganralf

The hardware bible says that it can have either (or both come to that) IDE and SCSI fitted http://amiga.resource.cx/exp/search....=a590&company=

• DMA SCSI and XT IDE controller
• Western Digital 33C93
• both SCSI and XT IDE mode can work simultaneously
• autoboot ROM - autobooting requires at least Kickstart 1.3
• autoboot disable switch
• time-out switch for drives which spin up slower than 30 seconds
• RDB compatible
• 50 pin internal SCSI header
• internal 40 pin XT IDE header (8 bit only)
• DB25 external SCSI connector
• supported by Linux
• A-Max II driver (scsi.amhd)
