This means that the "slow" communication at 31.25 kbaud is working,
but the "fast" one at 500 kbaud is not. The fact that the drive is
activated for a short while is just for loading the OS module for
RS422 communication.
It's typical behaviour for a Mac which doesn't support this 500 kbaud
communication.
In the database of hardware compatibility the Classic II is not
mentioned as compatible, and if I remember well other people
complained about this machine before.
An original Classic will do the job...
