Steven; Replying to your message to Mike…. The failure to boot with Konica powered off sure sounds like either: the A3000 terminator power diode is installed backward or the MacSCSI cable is bad. While I personally have not had a bad MacSCSI cable (and I have about a dozen), I have talked with quite a few people that have had. Other possible problems: the Konica might not have a terminator power diode at all, and no auctioneering circuit for terminator power (this is likely if the Konica is not designed to share the SCSI bus). —————- The boot delay is just something that you will have to learn to live with unless you re-order the scsi addressing and set the "last drive" bit on the internal drive. —————- Again, the motherboard is what should not be terminated when using both internal and external drives. —————- Have a good trip! -bill
