SCSI-2 knows of both, ``high density'' and AMP connectors (``Centronics'' -- this term is entirely bogus though, since Centronics is a parallel printer port definition, not just a connector only). SCSI-3 is not finalized. 68-pin connectors are SCSI-2 ``wide SCSI''. They are only available as HD connectors. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
