Use 'Cable Select' mode to possibly fix a dead drive
Authored by: rgetter on Nov 13, '06 01:04:54PM

For what it's worth, I was having some problems with an external Firewire 400 drive I put together (both power and activity LEDs would be stuck on) where it would hang my system during a shutdown. I discovered that I had mis-jumper'ed it to be in cable select mode (doh!). Strangely it worked fine for quite some time in that configuration.
