Is all of this on the same SCSI bus?

Say, isn't the external Zip drive (SCSI) using a 25-pin connector?
Because 25-pin SCSI connectors are bad news big-time even when hooking
up a drive that is powered off.

It looks like you have a bunch of stuff. If you aren't using top-notch
cables and terminators then that might contribute to SCSI problems. Also,
be 110% sure the termination is right (IE, only terminate at the last
drive at the end of the chain). 

I still haven't solved my SCSI woes. Need better cables...
