Make certain you match the SCSI ID. I think Maxtor ships drives set to
something other than what you'd expect. Mark may be able to help with the
settings.
I've got my maxcount set to 2048 to help eliminate the mouse locking problem.
You may want to experiment with what's best for you.
Also, if the Seagate is the terminated device now, you'll want to make sure the
Maxtor is as well when you complete the installation.
