I've got an IBM DORS32160 drive hanging off an NCR 53c810 controller 
that negotiates for SCSI-I, 5mb/sec upon boot.  The drive should be
negotiating for Fast SCSI-II.  It's an Apple OEM.  

Anyone seen this or have any ideas why my drive is calling itself or
being taken for a SCSI-I device?

Just for the record, the DORS is at ID 0 with termination enabled at
the end of a chain also containing a Seagate Fast SCSI-II drive and
an HP35480 DAT.  The DORS has no jumper for enabling term power.  The
other 2 devices are supplying term power.  OS is FreeBSD 2.2-BETA.
No other flakiness has been noted.  All devices are internal with
termination supplied on one side by the NCR.  The DORS is the Ultra
narrow model.

Thx,
Craig
