Okay, so first; I'm a SCSI newbie.

I got a LaCie K525 drive for the cost of shipping. It's got a Yamaha CDRW drive inside the enclosure.

I hooked it up to the Quadra, properly terminated it, and started everything up.

Maybe I'm missing something, but nothing's loading. In PC Exchange it recognizes a Yamaha drive is connected, but it won't load any driver for it (drive name is shown in italics). The CD Audio player says the Apple CDROM drive isn't responding. I installed the 5.4 Apple CD-ROM extension and that didn't make a difference.

SCSI ID is set to 3, per the drive manual and Apple documentation.

So...what am I doing wrong? Do I need to get another program to get it to play nice with the drive? Remember, floppies are the only way I can load things onto this machine so any big programs are out.
