Hello, After my A3640 card died, I bought a WarpEngine from MacroSystems… And it works like a charm… Except… I have a SyQuest SQ105S SCSI drive and a Wangtek 5150 ES, problem is that when they're both hooked to the WarpEngine, neither one will work. I can use either without problem, but not together. I have tried making one or the other the end device in the chain, I've checked the unit numbers, I've tried it with the resistors either on, off, on the end or in the middle; and just about every other varient that I can think up. Nothing works. I've sent a fax to MacroSystems and tried SEVERAL times to contact them by phone, but haven't gotten a reply or only got their machine, including one time where I called during their "posted" hours and let it ring enough times to turn on their answering machine. What's even worse is that one of my SyQuests has developed a problem, and I can't back the #$&#$@@#$ thing up! I've even called the BBS that they list as a support board, but haven't gotten anything useful from there to date either. Anyone using this setup without problems? Or a similar one? I was really, really impressed by the board & its designers, but I am not impressed by the support staff (or lack therof) so far… Maybe it's been timing… I don't know. Here's hoping, Don Suhr 73117,1337
