[Gllug] [OT probably?] Hardware question

[Adrian McMenamin]

I have a SCSI 3 device (68pin) - a tape drive.

But it doesn't seem to want to talk to my SCSI card - 

00:0d.0 SCSI storage controller: Advanced System Products, Inc
ABP940-U / ABP960-U (rev 03)

(Advansys ABP940-U/ABP960-U)

which is probably quite an old card but it was bought second-hand so not
sure how old, but it only has a 25 pin external interface, so pretty old
I reckon.

But the card works fine with older/simpler tape drives eg:


adrian at dragoneye:~$ lsscsi
[0:0:1:0]    tape    HP       C1533A           A812  /dev/st0
[0:0:6:0]    tape    HP       C1533A           A708  /dev/st1
[1:0:0:0]    disk    ATA      WDC WD2000JD-22H 08.0  /dev/sda


But I attempt to attach the other device I can see nothing at all on
scsi bus 0

How can I be sure it's that and not something else that's up?
