Prior to calling the hotline, and due to the fact that I will not be at my desk today, I will put this question to the net-folks: How do I plug the disk as scsi disk 2 (scsi disk 1 being the boot disk) ? There are two banks of pluggable prongs, j8 and j7. There are also a jumber of jumper banks, jpnn. Which gets it. What about the terminator pack ? Once I get this put it, how do I make it appear as one continious disk, disk striping ?(Where did that name come from ?). After having done that, what happend to the files when that disk is not there ?
