RE: how to slave scsi drives?



Hello Eric,

You do  not "slave" the SCSI drives. Your controller looks for SCSI ID "0" 
or "1" and boots from either of them. You can togle between those two ID's 
if you have two drives.

Subject: 	how to slave scsi drives?

Hello All,

I'm trying to migrate my current system on ST34520LW (Seagate) on to a
Barracuda that I don't know how to slave. I don't have this problem with 
IDE
hardisks because toggling the drive status from slave to master is done
simply by transferring a single jumper. On my Barracuda, I see some pins in
the front that would accomodate a fairly small jumper and a large jumper at
the back (J6?) that covers 8 pins. I tried toggling it to change the 
SCSI-ID
but the AHA-2940UW BIOS only detects one drive (and the HDA itself) and
still can't detect the Barracuda.

Some input will be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,


Erik Peter P. Abella
