Don, I am getting multiple hard drive crashes. This is while adding a SCSI tape drive. The cable has a center plug that is 6 inches away from the internal drive, then going to the external Tape drive is 5 feet of cable. Both ddrives are terminated OK but really trash my hard drive needing to do a complete re-format. I know the Trumpcard Pro can be sensitive to poor cables but can this imbalance cause such behavior? When I use a balanced cable it works flawlessly. What should I look for or change? Paul –pt–not seattle– 😉
