I cannot plug more than 1 FW HD in my OSXS Mac. The 2nd drive blocks the Finder, it cannot be shared and he entire system gets slow. Any solution/explanation, anyone?

Does FW == SCSI? If so you have to set the SCSI IDs on the drives using jumpers. Usually the first SCSI drive is ID0 the second ID1 and so on up to 15 devices. The controller is usually reserved the ID7. To find out how to set the jumpers go to the disk drives manufacturer site and look it up.

These are 2 identical FW 75 GB HD. They work perfectly with 9.2.1, but not with MXS 1.04

(thud) I shoulda figured that, sheesh. I haven't really tried FW drives with MOSXS yet... Only with MOS9.1 and not chaining them.
