My Starmax has both IDE and SCSI. It may (or may not) be that YD (or 
any Linux - I've had the same trouble with several distro's) has a 
'preference' for IDE over SCSI. I don't know. It sounds very unlikely, 
but other than a bad drive or bad SCSI controller I don't know what it 
could be. And the only problem I have with the drive or SCSI in general 
is trying to install Linux.
