After an astounding 12 days of uptime (and I have no idea how long it
was physically turned on) my Multia's internal hard drive has bitten the
dust. I have removed the internal hard drive and attached another hard
drive via the SCSI-II connector on the back. The problem I'm having is
that the Multia doesn't really want to boot from this drive; it acts as
if it is having bus time-outs. I have an external terminator on the
drive, and it is connected by a 1.5 foot cable. Has anyone else
experienced weird behavior by this system? Has anyone had any luck
installing a bigger internal hard drive?

PS: Cooling was not an issue. The basement is about ~70 degrees F day in
and day out, and I've supplemented the Multia's single (thermostatically
controlled) fan with another, regular fan.
