Hi, I have an Adaptec 1740 connected with three internal devices setup, two hard disks and an exabyte drive, connected on the fileserver. These have been working fine for a long time. The problem is when I am trying to add an external device to the Adaptec using the port on the outside. As the manual says I have removed the three terminator resistors on the card. I am trying to add a CDROM. I have given it a unique ID and terminated it. Everything the manual says do, however the card never registers the facts the CDROM is there. I know the CDROM is okay as it works fine on a standalone machine using the tranton scsi adapter. Has anyone any ideas on what I have missed??? Thanks, Bernard.
