There's no chance that you damaged the drive's ribbon cable when you
installed it, is there?

Thanks Josh, I also got that tip from [kby] off-list.  That indeed  
was probably the source of the problem.  I swapped out the cable for  
a REV B and also removed the jumper pin that was on the drive when it  
was in the 2400c.  That did it and the 2300c recognized the HD.

I installed OS 8 and then setup an old Asante EN/SC SCSI Ethernet  
adaptor - next thing you know I was surfing the web.

My next goal is to try and get the 2300c up to OS 9.2.2 like the 2400c.

Thanks duo listers!
