Chinon FZ-357 external disk drive led lights when switched off :(
I have built a "Chinon FZ-357" disk drive into an external disk drive case, and the drive works fine.
The only "problem" I have is that, if the drive is switched off with the on-/off-switch of the case, the drive led lights all the time. Is this normal on the FZ-357? Has anyone same experiences? The drive itself seems to be really "dead", when it is switched off (e.g. X-Copy disables it), but the drive led lights all the time  .Jumpers and "blop" have been set exactly like here: http://eab.abime.net/printthread.php?t=9365 I also tried to change the two cables to the on-/off-switch with each other, but it did not even help (well, was just a try). Any solutions or hints? Is there any more jumper to be set? Thank you! |

Hmm, did you jumper the drive as DS1 when using it in the external case ?
I am not sure but I think some external drive electronics need the drive itself jumpered as DS0, and some as DS1 ! |
