I have a computer running XP. All the disk drives (there
are 3) are SCSI hung on two different SCAI Adaptors.

One of the two disk drives (Fujitsu) on the Adapted AHA
2940 (?) has disapeared. It was visible when I first
installed XP, but is not now. It shows correctly in the
SCSI Select utility which is avaible during boot up. I
don't know what happened and everything I have tried in XP
to put it back fails.

Help!!

Have you checked the disk management out to see if the drive is showing up
there? It may have somehow had the drive letter unassigned. Worse, it could
have bad media. I have seen SCSI drives show up in the boot list as they are
being enumerated, but because of bad media (i.e. track 0 sector 0 was screwed
up) not show up to the OS since it can not determine the partitioning of the
drive.
