Well, it had to happen one day; the RISC PC (Eesox fast SCSI 2 Card)
is failing to properly recognise its external (and only) SCSI drive.
The partitions no longer appear on the iconbar and SCSI Director
seems to think I have eight drives, each of which has the following
description: CEAGADE CD##&&'LG

Seven of the drives show unknown type and capacity but the first does
show the correct capacity of 34.2GB.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to proceed; I have already
tried re-plugging the external connections.

Sounds like it could possibly be a termination problem.

Maybe so, but I have not changed anything.

How does you
SCSI drive connect,

It's in an external enclosure, connected by ribbon to the internal
interface header on the card.

and what does it do about terminating (external
plug, switch, whatever?)

External 'dongle' on a ribbon cable, and a conf., setting on the card.
