Thx !!!
But it's not working.

I have a IBM model DDYS-T18350 scsi lvd/se 18,2 Gb disk "not 14 Gb sorry".

I have setup the jumper:
ID BIT 3
FORCS SE
ENABLE AUTO SPIN

I have also jumper setting's "but is not using this"
ID BIT 2
ID BIT 1
ID BIT 0
TERM POWER
LED OUT
DISABLE UNIT ATTN
TI SYNC NEGO
DISABLE PARITY
DELAY STRART 6/12
AUTO START DELAY

I can not se my IBM disk with probe-scsi all. :-(
The disk is working ok in a pc compaq.

Any sugestion "please".
