I just acquired a Maxtor XT-8760S with no documentation (isn't
that always the way :-).
If someone could tell me how I need to set the jumpers, I'd appreciate it.
I'll be connecting the drive as a second drive on an Adaptec 1542b host
adapter. The first drive (drive 0 I believe) is a CDC Wren IV. There
is also an Archive Viper 2150S tape unit on the bus, set at id 4 I believe.
Also, if someone could either send me a photcopy of the manual for this
drive, I'd be happy to send you postage and duplicating costs. Or, if
someone could send me the number for Maxtor, so I can ask them for the
manual, that'd be good too.
Thanks in advance (anxiously awaiting this info so I can try this and
see if it works:-) --
I'm hoping to install the drive by connecting it to the external
connector on the Adaptec board (the other drives are internal). Any
special tips on doing this?
Bill
