Nothing special with 18Gig Drives, they work.(see below)
Either this is a bug in 3.0-current sysinstall (or aic7880 Driver?) 
Since sysinstall doesn't recognized my either, I had to disklabel them first
with a 2.2.7 System, but they work fine with 3.0-Current. 
I have a similar Machine with aic 7890 Controller, 3.0 sysinstall
works flawless here.
