Wow... It also fails with MWDMA2 ! That's just plain weird. It fails as
master as well as slave too. Hrm. I wonder if it could be your cable...
Do you have other machines (non-powermac) you can try that drive again
just in case it toast itself in some way too ?

Bart, I don't suppose we know of any problem with those drive models ?
