Dave,

Clicking SCSI drive coupled with no recognition sounds like a termination issue. Check the drive, card and cable.

Any of the three are capable of providing termination, if more than one of them is you'll have issues.

A terminating cable is easy to spot. My experience with cards is they do not provide termination by default, at least not on the external bus.

Start with the drive.

If I had to guess I'd say the jumpers are not set to terminate.

Any other SCSI devices in the chain that could cause an ID conflict?

The 2900 series is pretty vanilla, I'd stick with it.

WHere is the drive? External case or are you putting internal on the PC?
