I have bought a Seagate ST4702N 613MB WREN disk for a SUN Sparcstation1+.
It was delivered with a box with Power supply and all I had to do, or so
I hoped, was to read the installation paper and assemble the thing.
However, it turned out to be not so easy.
In the installation paper there's a picture on how to select SCSI drive
ID on the Seagate by putting jumpers on pin pairs. Only that on the
picture there's 8 pairs of pins and on my disk there's only 7, and yes
I've got the right installation paper (at least it claims to be).
Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Normally #0 I expect. All you have to do is pick a number for the drive. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Mark Matthewson Long distance runners can keep going longer t891368@minyos.xx.rmit.oz.au Is your job secure? mark@albert.ai.mit.edu Do you have the code to prove it?
