Hey guys and gals, This is way off topic but i cant seem to get answers anywhere...so here goes. Ive got a scsi bus in my machine and Id like to install an SCA LVD drive into it. This scsi bus however is single ended 8bit and only supports 68pin and 50pin connections while this new drive is an 80pin. So i got a converter for the drive that supports both SCA and SCA-2 wiring. So ive got my Mylex Bt-956C controller that has power termination, connected to my new drive in the middle with the converter, and lastly the scsi drive that is SE and 68pin compatible that has power termination to complete the bus. Only when i go into the scsi configuration for the controller, it fails to pick up the SCA drive. I dont get why. The converter has all the jumpers set, namely motor start, and ID0. Has anyone tried anything similar? Im really confused as to why it doesnt work. here is my new drive: http://www.seagate.com/support/disc/specs/scsi/st39204lc.html and this is the converter im using : http://www.starmount.co.uk/sca_3.htm I hope someone can help me out! cheers, Mel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
