Mac Forum / General / Hardware / June 2006

I have older Mac G3 with 1GHD, running OS 9.1. (Need to keep machine
for tax
programs).  Bought external LaCie SCSI 50G as an add on. G3 hard drive
is "HFS". External
50G is "HFS+".  Desktop shows both hard drives fine. Systems profiler
shows both fine.
Mac G3 is "0" and 50G add on is "1" in SCSI chain. Why does the MAC
lock up when I try to
move-copy existing Folders to the new 50GHD? Have to do hard reboot!

If I copy-move one (1) file at a time... no problem and no lock up.
Copy-write
process starts and then freezes with folders or multiple files. Could
this be due to my
installed Norton's Utilities (File Saver)? Could this be due to SCSI
term error? What is difference
between HFS and HFS+? Should both drives be formatted the same?
