i can't get it to work. is it defective? here is the full story:

i purchased a 73gig sca hard drive in a sun 611 case some time ago,
and tried to attach it to a 'new' ultra-1. it was not recognized, no
matter what i tried. i eventually took the drive, attached a 50pin to
sca adapter, and put it on a sparc2 which is very reliable, and besides
has sformat working on it. it was attached at scsi station 0.
[format sees the drive but gives no useful error messages.]

this time the machine recognizes the drive, and here are the results:
