Does this look familiar to you? You're not a drummer by any chance..?

@Zetr0

You still got a small SCSI drive spare?

Ta, Dave G

Zetr0 · 09 March 2008, 22:00

@Davideo

Alas, no my friend, but i might have a U2W (ultra2Wide) 9.1gb 10krpm cheata, its SCA80 so will need a converter to 50pin, but it should work without any issues...

I got a bunch cheap a while back for a little raid project (as an example to show a friend the speed of said SCSI 3 raid) anyway I can throw one of them your way for what i paid for, which is around £5 which includes postage ?

you will however need to get one of of these

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SCA-Adapter-80...QQcmdZViewItem

I have a couple of the above, and i have found them soooo usefull!!!! well worth the couple of quid.

I will also say that U2W 10k cheeta's are a little loud! but the speed.... oh baby!

davideo · 09 March 2008, 22:08

@Zetr0

Do you know if this would work with a A2091 SCSI card in a 2000HD?

The original drive died and I was trying to get this up and running again

Dave G

Zetr0 · 09 March 2008, 22:18

@davideo

you may need to update the scsi bios on the card, I think there was another thread in hardware about that...

davideo · 09 March 2008, 22:27

@Zetr0

Yes I remember seeing that the A2091 had problems

Time to do some research I think
