I'll second this experience, and add another wrinkle. In my Power Mac 7300
(now G3/400), when I installed a new ST15150N it would not cooperate with the
CD-ROM on the same bus. I eventually had to put the CD-ROM on the slow SCSI
bus to get it to boot at all, and isolate the two Seagate HDs on the fast bus.
Is yours a Barracuda also?

The only reason I tolerate this drive's quirks is because it is one freaking
fast HD. Wherever I can otherwise, I use Apple-branded Quantum Fireballs.
