Hi
In order to copy some files I tried to connect my SE/30's SCSI hdd (with System 7.0.1. or 7.1 dont remember) to Macintosh Plus using external case. I hear the drive spinning, but it doesnt show in Finder...just nothing!
Some clues:
- I did not have a standard Centronics style SCSI terminator, just this pass through female type like this one http://ppeci.com/images/uploads/products/ADZ-TC50MF-AC.jpg (is this an issue? )
- the only boot disk I have with my Plus is System 5.1 (might be too old?)
- the hdd has linux partition next to HFS one
Any tips will be highly appreciated.

Use the se/30 to make a 800k floppy with scsi probe. Does it detect the drive? If not, I would say termination problem.
