I currently have a Seagate ST238 with an Adaptec 2070A controller, and I'd like to add a second hard disk. There are no obvious jumpers on the board but there is an obvious second set of pins for a "B" (probably data) cable. The "A" (thicker) cable presently only has one 30+ pin card edge connector. My question is this: how do I add a second hard disk to this configuration? I assume I have to replace the "A" cable and get a "B" cable, but is there anything else? I have a number of drives to chose from so I'm not worried about compatibility. If possible, please reply by e-mail; I tend to get behind on this bboard. (The "A" and "B" cables refer to the standard SMD disk cabling; I have no idea what the PC world's names are for the cables). Thanks in advance. -- dan davison/theoretical biology/t-10 ms k710/los alamos national laboratory los alamos, nm 875545/dd@lanl.gov (arpa)/dd@lanl.uucp(new)/..cmcl2!lanl!dd "I think, therefore I am confused"
