Hello FBSDers,

I just recently acquired a Quantum Trailblazer 840S (P/N TR84S011)
Unfortunately, I have no specs on it. Anyways, I have it installed into 
an external unit, connected to the IOMEGA Zip-Drive SCSI controller
card.

>From the online material I got from http://www.quantum.com,
I was able to decipher the factory default settings:
	PK = spare = off
	TE = Termination Enable = ON
	A2 = ON, A1 = ON, A0=OFF, so my SCSI ID = 6

By the way, The cable from my IOMEGA Controller card is a Male D25
to 50-pin Male Centronics. The Terminator which I am using costs me
$4.95 at the local computer discount store.

Problem:
	Drive is not recogized at start up.
	I ran the IOMEGA SCSICFG (Scsi Config) utility to probe for
		the hard disk, but it was not detected...

Questions:
1. Is this particular Quantum drive a Fast SCSI-2 Drive?
2. Am I using the correct type of terminator? [$4.95 is too cheap??]

I apologize for these silly questions. I'm breaking into the world
of SCSI and leaving IDE behind...

TIA,
Trung
