Wait, let me see if I read this correctly. You have

SCSI card (terminated) --- HD id=0 --- CD id=1 --- terminator

Did I get that right?

Are you sure you have termination power on the bus? Some
drives supply it, some don't. If you had a drive that did
supply it and you replaced it with a drive that didn't
supply termination power then you will have problems.

Your cables are fine? Just last week I couldn't get a box
running with a SCSI card, turns out I had a crimp in my
cable. *sigh*
