On my model RP4 is definately mounted (fortunately i decided i was going to check further before i pulled harder). That does jive with the table you posted. I still haven't been able to pick up a 50-50 scsi cable so haven't yet put the new system together. Actually, I'm moving the whole enclosure to a server system. I'm still not sure which unit gets stuck out on the end but needed to verify what the terminator status was in any case. lGlamb lglamb+RV13@rvdc.unisys.com CTOS Data Comm Support

Larry, It doesn't really matter which device you hang on the end just as long as the termination is only on it. Chris

Chris, It does if you don't want cables running all over the place and if the final one needs powered terminators and isn't likely to be on most of the time. I really see no need to keep the QIC on as it doesn't get used that much. Plus you've got to contend with the conversion cables from the amiga 25 pin to 50 etc. larry lGlamb lglamb+RV13@rvdc.unisys.com CTOS Data Comm Support
