I`ve got a GVP Impact 500 SCSI-Controller, fitted with a 40Mb HD for my 500. Now I wish to connect another harddisk (20 Mb Seagate SCSI) to the controller. This requires a 25-50 pins cable. I made one based on the pinouts of the GVP controller and the harddisk. This cable, however, did not work. I did set the SCSI ID correctly. The GVP manual (leaflet) stated that a "resistor packet" was required.

My questions are:

	- Does anyone know what a  resistor packet is, and where to get one ?
	- Where is it possible to buy a 25-50 pin SCSI cable ?

My harddisk is filled to its limit, and I need help.
