Seems the cables we are getting from Supermicro are not > up for the long haul. Are you connecting them to the same SCSI channel? If so, I trust you are attaching them like so: Adapter+------+Backplane 1+--+Backplane 2+-Terminator You can't hook them up like this: Adapter+------+Backplane 1+-Terminator | +--+Backplane 2+-Terminator | +-Terminator Even in configurartion 1, there are lots of backplanes out there that fair much worse than a good U320 cable. You may find that your backplanes just are not good enough to run U320. -- Justin
