Sounds a lot like you're missing terminators on your disk drives.

Make absolutely certain that only one drive has the terminators installed,
and it's the last in the chain.  Check your drive manuals.  ST506
style drives frequently go nuts in this manner if the terminators are
missing or installed in both drives in a dual-drive system.
