I have one of those old dogs here.  It is recognized just fine - IF
the SCSI controller is recognized and loaded.  As for function, it's
marginal at best.  I managed to use it to load Warp 4 and Warp Server
for eBusiness on a test machine but it's really tempermental about
reading CD's.

The first thing is to make sure your SCSI adapter is loading and
working - most of the SCSI drivers support a /V on the config.sys line
to display the load results.  Try that - BTW, what is the adapter?
