    there can be several reasons for this, the first one is bad HD, if it's possible try to hook another one. the second you SCSI controler has gone bad. and the third one cables, but you said that they are all right.

    If all thats ok, Will probably be your jumper settings. If you go to the website for your drive you should be able to see the various jumper options.
