Ray, OOPS! Re-reading what I had previously written, I realized that I did not mention one very important step: I removed a jumper from the Quantum hard disk drive. Note that I did this without consulting any documentation whatsoever — that it did what I had intended was due purely to luck. To attach the Quantum drive to the middle connector of my three-connector cable, I needed to remove a terminating resistor (my Syquest drive had a terminating resistor installed). Well, there is only one removeable part on the entire Quantum drive — a jumper that is labeled "EP", located near the edge of the component board on the underside of the drive. I removed that jumper. What can I say? It works… Wayde
