I already have a 40M Conner and want to add a 100M Conner. I have tried a few combinations, but without any luck. If I connect only 1 drive (either) it works fine. I just can't get the setup to find the second drive. This is what I am trying now: ================================================================ ================================================================ ================================================================ ================================================================ ================================================================ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ Motherboard 100M 40M HSP - HSP - C/D - C/D - X DSP - DSP - ACT - X ACT - X The X denotes a jumper. Are the jumpers correct? Is there some switch on the motherboard that I must set? Any pointers will be greeeeeeeaaaaaatly appreciated. --------------------------- Daniel Easley Xyvision Design Systems contex!dan@uunet.uu.net WORK : 617-224-5573 uunet!contex!dan ---------------------------
