Hmmm... Do you have a new (say, Mac OS 9.0 or later) version of the 
Apple Drive Setup utility (mine from OS 9.2.2 says it is version 2.1)? 
Newer versions of the utility will recognize a much greater range of 
hard drives.

If you are unable to find one, I can supply you with a copy of mine 
(though I don't know whether it would work with an earlier version of 
the Mac OS).

Good luck!

Best wishes,
Clint
