The 50 pin connector Wrong. This is one SCSI bus as far as I can see. SCSI buses are linear things, not star shaped. And they have only 2 terminators, each on every end of the bus. So: T=terminator D=scsi device H= hostadapter T-------D--------H--------D-------T is OK T-------D--------H--------D-------T | D | T is definitely wrong. To add to that using external and internal (flat) cables is generally not recommended, especially not on Ultra (or faster) buses. Configure things correctly and try again. BTW I recommend putting the DLT on it's own bus. It likes that (for speed).
